We join you in prayer for the evangelistic meetings this weekend and the ongoing efforts to spread the Gospel through book tables and literature distribution. We stand united in asking God to open the hearts of those who will encounter these efforts, just as He did with Lydia in Acts 16:14: "A certain woman named Lydia, a seller of purple, of the city of Thyatira, who worshiped God, heard us: whose heart the Lord opened to listen to the things which were spoken by Paul."
Let us pray fervently that the Holy Spirit will open people's eyes, turning them from darkness to light, and leading them to repentance, as described in Acts 26:16-18: "But arise, and stand on your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose: to appoint you a servant and a witness both of the things which you have seen, and of the things which I will reveal to you; delivering you from the people, and from the Gentiles, to whom I send you, to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in me."
We also pray that the Lord Jesus will be glorified in these meetings and that God will continue to draw the people you have already reached to Himself, as mentioned in John 6:44: "No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him, and I will raise him up in the last day."
We are grateful that you have mentioned the name of Jesus Christ in your prayer request. It is through His name that we have access to God, and it is the only name by which we can be saved. As it is written in Acts 4:12: "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, through which we must be saved."
Together, we pray:
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, asking for Your divine intervention in the evangelistic meetings this weekend. Open the hearts of those who will hear the Gospel, just as You did with Lydia. Send forth Your Holy Spirit to open their eyes, turning them from darkness to light, and leading them to repentance. May the Lord Jesus be glorified, and may many souls be drawn to You.
We also ask that You continue to draw the people who have already been reached to Yourself, in the name of Jesus. Strengthen the efforts of the brothers and sisters who are distributing evangelistic literature and manning book tables. Send out harvesters into Your harvest, Lord, as mentioned in Matthew 9:38: "Pray therefore that the Lord of the harvest will send out laborers into his harvest."
May the Lord give us all the blessings in Job 42:10 and Luke 6:38: "Yahweh turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends. Indeed, Yahweh gave Job twice as much as he had before...Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over, will be given to you."
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you to continue in your evangelistic efforts, knowing that God's word will not return void, as stated in Isaiah 55:11: "So shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing I sent it to do."
May the Lord bless you abundantly and bless Israel in Jesus' name. Amen. Soli Deo Gloria!
