Loved ones

We join you in lifting up your loved ones before the throne of grace and we share your burden for their salvation, for it is the heart of God that none should perish. We are encouraged by your intercession because Scripture tells us this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth, 1 Timothy 2:3-4. We stand with you asking that God will open their eyes and soften their hearts to receive the Gospel.
We also hear your concern for those involved in the new age and we must speak plainly about this with love. The new age is not a harmless path to spirituality but a deception that turns hearts away from the one true God. Scripture warns us that the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelieving, that the light of the Good News of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should not dawn on them, 2 Corinthians 4:4. Even Satan masquerades as an angel of light, 2 Corinthians 11:14, and offers counterfeit peace and power that cannot save. God has clearly spoken against these practices, saying there shall not be found with you anyone who uses divination, one who practices sorcery, or an enchanter, or a sorcerer, or a charmer, or a consulter with a familiar spirit, or a wizard, or a necromancer, for whoever does these things is an abomination to Yahweh, Deuteronomy 18:10-12. There is only one way to the Father and it is not through enlightenment or energy or self divinity, but through Jesus Christ alone, for Jesus said I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me, John 14:6, and there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved, Acts 4:12.
We pray together now for your loved ones.
Father in heaven, we come before You in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We thank You for Your mercy and Your desire to save. We lift up every loved one represented in this request, those who do not yet know You and those who have been led astray into new age beliefs. We ask that You remove the veil of darkness and deliver them out of the power of darkness, and translate them into the Kingdom of the Son of Your love, Colossians 1:13. Holy Spirit, convict them of sin and of righteousness and reveal to them that Jesus is the only way to forgiveness and eternal life. Break the deception and the bondage of false spirituality and show them its emptiness, and draw them with Your loving kindness to repentance and faith in Christ. Give them a hunger for Your Word and for truth. We also pray for the one who submitted this request, grant wisdom and boldness and love to be a faithful witness, to speak the truth in love and to live as a light before them, and grant patience to not grow weary in intercession. We trust Your timing and Your perfect will and we ask all this in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, amen.
We encourage you to continue steadfast in prayer and in gently sharing the Gospel as God gives opportunity. Keep sowing the Word with love and without compromise, remembering that it is God who gives the increase. Trust that He hears your prayers and is working even when you cannot see it, and rest in His promise that His Word will not return void.

Thank you for sharing this burden with us. Carrying a love for family and friends who do not yet know Christ can feel heavy, and we want you to know we are standing with you in prayer.
We understand how painful it can be to watch people you love turn to new age ideas. Those paths often sound appealing because they promise that we can find god within ourselves and that all spiritual roads lead the same place, with no need for repentance or dependence on anyone else. In the end that kind of self focused spirituality tends to leave people still restless and searching, even while it claims to offer peace.
We are encouraged by your steady desire to pray rather than pressure them. One simple way to keep going is to pray for each loved one by name as the Lord brings them to mind, and to ask Him to give you natural moments to show His love in everyday ways. A listening ear, a consistent life that reflects Christ's care, and a gentle answer when they ask about your faith often opens more doors than debate ever could. God does the changing of hearts, our part is to remain faithful in love and prayer.
Father, we lift each of these loved ones to You. Draw them to Yourself, open their eyes to know Jesus as He truly is, and give our friend grace and patience as they love them well. Use their life to reflect Your kindness and truth. In Jesus' name we pray, amen.

Beloved of All
How gracious a burden the Lord has laid upon your heart, to plead that those you love might be saved. This is the very heart of intercession, and we will join our prayers with yours before the throne of grace.
There is only one way of salvation for all, and that way is Christ alone. The Scripture says, Whoever believes on Him shall not be ashamed. It is not by philosophy nor by any new sect that rises up, nor by the inventions of men, but by looking unto Jesus. As the Lord Himself has said, Look unto me and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth, for I am God and there is none else. How simple is that way, and how instantaneous, for a look does not require a moment, and yet it brings life everlasting.
We grieve with you for those entangled in the darkness of the new age. That way promises light but gives none, for it turns the soul away from the only true Light. Yet we know that the Holy Spirit makes use of the Law of the Lord in drawing men to Christ, and that with lovingkindness He draws those whom He has loved with an everlasting love. He is able to stoop from the highest Heaven and thrust His arm into the mire to pull the lost out of the pit and make them blessed forever among the shining ones.
Let us pray together.
O Lord our God, we thank Thee that salvation is without money and without price, secured by the blood of Thy dear Son. We bring before Thee these loved ones, each by name as known to Thee, and we entreat Thy mercy upon them. Draw them with cords of everlasting love, open their eyes to see that Christ is Thy salvation and in none other is there hope. Deliver those who are deceived by the new age, break the power of false teaching that seals up the dead Christ and hides His grace, and cause them to look unto Jesus and live. Grant to our dear friend who pleads for them perseverance in prayer and opportunity to set plainly before them the Gospel of salvation by Divine Grace through faith in Christ Jesus. Keep this intercessor close to the Saviour, and let every loved one yet unsaved be brought to confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. We ask this in the precious name of Jesus, our only hope. Amen.
Continue to place them daily before the Lord, and set Christ plainly before them as often as Providence gives you leave, for faith cometh by hearing. The Lord is able to save unto the uttermost, and He honor is engaged to save the meanest of His sheep who commits his soul into His hands.
