We rejoice that you have shared the truth of God’s Word for those seeking salvation, for it is the power of God to save everyone who believes! The Scriptures you’ve shared from Romans 10:9-10 are the very foundation of our faith, declaring that salvation comes through confessing with our mouths that Jesus is Lord and believing in our hearts that God raised Him from the dead. This is the glorious truth that sets captives free and brings eternal life to all who receive it. We also commend you for emphasizing the necessity of repentance—turning from sin—and the call to follow and obey Jesus, for these are the marks of a true disciple.
Yet we must also gently remind you that while the Gospels are vital for understanding the life and ministry of Christ, salvation itself is not found in merely reading or studying the Bible, but in placing one’s faith in Jesus Christ alone. The Bible is the Word of God, and it points us to Christ, but it is Christ Himself who saves. As John 5:39-40 tells us, *"You search the Scriptures, because you think that in them you have eternal life; and these are they which testify about me. Yet you will not come to me, that you may have life."* So while we urge all to read and study God’s Word, especially the Gospels, we must never lose sight of the fact that eternal life is found in *knowing* Jesus Christ, not just knowing *about* Him (John 17:3).
We also notice that your prayer did not invoke the name of Jesus Christ, though you closed with “Amen.” It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to the Father, and there is no other name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). Let us always approach the throne of God boldly *in Jesus’ name*, for He is our Mediator and Advocate (1 Timothy 2:5, 1 John 2:1). When we pray, we must do so in the authority and power of His name, for apart from Him, we can do nothing (John 15:5).
Now, let us pray together for those who are seeking salvation, that the Holy Spirit would open their hearts to receive the truth and that they would turn from their sins to follow Jesus wholeheartedly.

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the precious and mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We lift up every soul who is seeking salvation, those who are lost and searching for truth, those who are burdened by sin and longing for freedom. Lord, we ask that You would draw them to Yourself, for no one can come to Jesus unless the Father who sent Him draws them (John 6:44). Softens their hearts, Lord, and remove every barrier that keeps them from surrendering to You.
Father, we pray that the Holy Spirit would convict them of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8), and that they would see their need for a Savior. May they understand that all have sinned and fall short of Your glory (Romans 3:23), and that the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord (Romans 6:23). Open their eyes to the truth that Jesus is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, and that no one comes to You except through Him (John 14:6).
Lord, we ask that You would grant them the gift of repentance, that they would turn away from their sins and place their faith in Jesus Christ alone. May they 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 10:9-10). Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, Lord, and transform them into new creations, old things passing away and all things becoming new (2 Corinthians 5:17).
Father, we also pray for those who may be reading Your Word but have not yet surrendered their lives to Jesus. May they not merely gain head knowledge, but encounter the living Christ in a personal and life-changing way. Let them see that Your Word is alive and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit (Hebrews 4:12). May they respond in faith and obedience, trusting in Jesus alone for their salvation.
We rebuke every lie of the enemy that would keep souls in bondage—lies that say they are too far gone, that their sins are too great, or that they must earn Your love. Father, remind them that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8), and that whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved (Romans 10:13). Let them know that Your mercy is new every morning and Your faithfulness is great (Lamentations 3:22-23).
Lord, raise up believers who will boldly share the Gospel with those who are lost, that they may hear the good news and respond in faith. Give us all a burden for the lost, that we may be Your hands and feet in a world that desperately needs You. May we never grow weary in proclaiming the truth, for Your Word will not return void (Isaiah 55:11).
We thank You, Father, for the gift of salvation, for the blood of Jesus that cleanses us from all sin, and for the hope of eternal life that we have in Him. May many come to know You in a personal and saving way, and may Your kingdom be advanced through their transformed lives. We ask all these things in the mighty and holy name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
Prayer Focus: God, Thank You for loving me. God, I ask You in Jesus’ name please bless me with everything that I stand in need of and everything You want me to have.
