How to Pray for the Unsaved
Brothers, my heart’s
desire and prayer to God for them is that they may be saved. (Romans 10:1)
In Romans, Paul pray
that God would convert Israel. He prayed
for their salvation. And that should be
our prayer also for the hoard of unsaved close to us.
Our plead to God should
be to bring to pass in our children, our neighborhood and on the mission field
of the world the new covenant promise of God to:
·
Take out their flash of stone and give them a new heart of
flash. (Ezekiel 11:19).
·
Circumcise their heart so that they come to love God
(Deuteronomy 30:6).
·
And that the Father put His Spirit within them and cause them to
walk in His statures (Ezekiel 36:27).
·
Grant them repentance and a knowledge of the truth of God (2
Timothy 2:25-26).
·
Open their hearts so that they may believe the Gospel (Acts
16:14)
We should be in prayer for
our love ones, friends, neighbors, co-worker and people we meet who need to receive
the salvation offered only through Jesus. When we truly have a heart for the lost and pray
for their salvation, only then will we see the mighty hand of God drawing those
we are praying for to Him. Let us pray for
the unsaved.
