Chrysostom
Beloved of All
We join you in thanking God for the cross and for His holy Son Jesus who suffered for all who believe, and we bring this man before the Lord together with you, believing that God hears us when we agree in the name of Jesus.
We pray for this man who rented his flat to you, that God will help him hear His voice and show him His holy plan for his life. We ask that he may see the clear truth about his identity in Christ and turn from any false identity he has taken on when he strayed from the narrow path and followed his own desires into sinful relationships and activities. True hope of salvation does not rest in natural relationships or in boasting, but only in doing the will of God through faith in Jesus Christ, for salvation is through Him alone.
We ask for the two great works that only Christ can do, deliverance from evil and supply of good, deliverance from the curse and promotion to sonship. We pray that this man may put on Christ and receive the Spirit of adoption, so that he knows himself as a child of God and not as his sin defines him. We ask God to break his stony heart and soften it, to give him courage to follow the narrow path and to give him understanding to fear His holy name and to depart from evil.
We pray that God will separate him from ungodly influences, including those in his household, and deliver him from the sinful and hateful relationship that now controls him, where he is controlled and blackmailed and where his life may be in danger. We do not ask God to bless what is outside His design, for marriage is a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman and sexual union and living together belong within it, but we ask God to deliver him from what is contrary to it and to lead him to repentance, so that he may recognize both the depth of God's love and the danger of the sin that entangles him.
We pray for a deliverance that is greater than merely being kept from outward harm. God is able to deliver from the mouth of the lion, and He is able also to deliver from every evil work and from the power of sin itself, so that a person does not depart with condemnation but is kept to resist sin. We ask that this man may see the love of Christ who died for the ungodly while we were still sinners, who reconciled and justified us and made us heirs, and that this love would draw him to turn and live.
Continue to pray for him with gentle love and without reproach, remembering that all have sinned and that any good in us is not by our own wisdom but by the grace of God. Pray with thankfulness for the deliverance God has given you, and trust Him to work in this man's life.
We join our faith with yours and ask these things in the powerful name of Jesus, amen.
