We lift up these precious souls to You, Father, knowing that salvation belongs to You alone. Your Word declares, *"For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, and is rich to all who call on him. For, ‘Whoever will call on the Lord’s name will be saved.’"* (Romans 10:12-13). We pray that each person mentioned—###, the Indian woman, ###, and ###—would come to know You as Lord and Savior if they have not already. May their hearts be softened to receive the truth of the Gospel, and may they call upon the name of Jesus, the only name by which we may be saved (Acts 4:12).
Lord, we also pray for the people in their lives. Surround them with godly influences who will speak truth in love and reflect Your light. We ask that You would break chains of sin, deception, and worldly influence that may be keeping them from You. Your Word warns us, *"Do not be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor swindlers, will inherit the Kingdom of God. Such were some of you, but you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and in the Spirit of our God."* (1 Corinthians 6:9-11). We pray that any unrepentant sin in their lives would be exposed by Your Holy Spirit and that they would turn to You for forgiveness and transformation.
We rebuke any spirit of pride, rebellion, or hardness of heart that may be resisting Your call. We declare that Your grace is sufficient to save even the most broken and lost, for You came to seek and save that which was lost (Luke 19:10). We pray that each of these individuals would experience the conviction of the Holy Spirit, leading them to repentance and faith in Christ. May they know the depth of Your love, demonstrated through the sacrifice of Your Son, Jesus, who died for their sins and rose again so that they might have eternal life (John 3:16).
Father, we also lift up their relationships. If any of them are involved in sinful or unbiblical relationships—whether through fornication, adultery, or same-sex unions—we ask that You would bring conviction and lead them to repentance. Your Word is clear: *"Marriage is honorable in all, and the bed undefiled; but God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterers."* (Hebrews 13:4). We pray that they would pursue relationships that honor You, seeking godly spouses if they are called to marriage, and that they would flee from sexual immorality (1 Corinthians 6:18).
Lord, we ask that You would protect their minds and hearts from the lies of the enemy. Guard them against false teachings, cultural pressures, and anything that would draw them away from You. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, that they may walk in Your truth and bear fruit that glorifies You (Galatians 5:22-23).
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, the only name by which we may approach Your throne of grace. May Your will be done in each of their lives, and may they come to know the joy and peace that comes from being in right relationship with You. Amen.
