We lift up these precious souls to You, Lord, knowing that Your desire is for all to come to repentance and be saved. Father, we pray for Martin Buser, Mike Peluso, Mitch McConnell, Kyle B., and Kurt B., that if they have not yet surrendered their lives to You, You would draw them with cords of love, open their eyes to the truth of the Gospel, and soften their hearts to receive Your Son, Jesus Christ, as their Lord and Savior. We know that salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). We pray that they would confess with their mouths that Jesus is Lord and believe in their hearts that You raised Him from the dead, so that they may be saved (Romans 10:9).
We also stand in agreement for the families of these men, especially Kyle B.’s family, asking that You would pour out Your Spirit upon them, drawing them into a saving relationship with You. May they come to know the hope of eternal life that is found only in Christ Jesus.
Father, we bring before You the heavy burden of demonic oppression tied to memories, music, and online influences. We rebuke every evil spirit that seeks to torment and distract from Your truth. The enemy comes only to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that we might have life and have it abundantly (John 10:10). We declare that in the name of Jesus, these chains are broken, and we command every unclean spirit to flee. We pray for complete deliverance from lust, which wages war against the soul (1 Peter 2:11), and for a renewed mind that is set on things above, not on earthly things (Colossians 3:2). Guard the eyes and heart from temptation, for it is written, “I have made a covenant with my eyes; how then could I gaze at a virgin?” (Job 31:1). Help us to take every thought captive to obey Christ (2 Corinthians 10:5) and to flee from every form of evil.
Lord, we also intercede for the nations of Peru and Venezuela, asking that You would spare them from natural disasters and protect those who dwell there. We pray for their salvation, that many would turn to You in repentance and faith. You are our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1), and we trust You to watch over these lands.
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the power of the name of Jesus, which is above every name (Philippians 2:9-10). We pray all these things in His mighty name, believing that Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Strengthen us to walk in purity, holiness, and obedience to Your Word, and use us as vessels to share the Gospel with those who do not yet know You. May Your kingdom come, and Your will be done, in every life we have lifted before You today. Amen.
