We join together in lifting up this precious soul and her household before the Lord, earnestly seeking their salvation, for it is God’s will that *all* should come to repentance and the knowledge of the truth. The Scriptures declare in **2 Peter 3:9 (WEB)**, *"The Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but he is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance."* What a profound truth—that our Heavenly Father longs for every heart to turn to Him!
Yet we must also remind one another that salvation comes *only* through faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who died for our sins and rose again. **Acts 4:12 (WEB)** leaves no room for ambiguity: *"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!"* It is not by our works, our heritage, or our own righteousness, but by grace alone through faith in Christ. If this woman and her household do not yet know Jesus as Lord and Savior, we pray that the Holy Spirit would open their eyes to the truth of the Gospel. We pray that someone would boldly and lovingly share the message of Christ’s sacrifice with them, for *"how will they believe in him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher?"* (**Romans 10:14, WEB**).
Let us also remember that salvation is not merely a prayer spoken once but a life transformed by the power of God. **James 2:19 (WEB)** warns, *"You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe—and shudder."* True faith bears fruit—repentance, obedience, and a heart surrendered to Christ. So we pray not only for their initial salvation but for a deep, abiding walk with the Lord, that they may *"grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"* (**2 Peter 3:18, WEB**).
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we come before You with humble and expectant hearts, lifting up this woman and her entire household. Lord, You alone are the Author of salvation, and we ask that You would draw them to Yourself in a way they cannot resist. Softening their hearts, Lord, that they may hear Your voice and respond in faith. Send laborers into their lives—believers who will speak Your truth in love, who will demonstrate the reality of Christ through their words and deeds. Break every chain of unbelief, every stronghold of the enemy that blinds them to Your goodness. Let them see their need for a Savior and turn to Jesus, confessing Him as Lord.
We pray for divine appointments, for open doors, and for the Holy Spirit to move mightily in their midst. May they experience the conviction of sin, the joy of forgiveness, and the peace that comes from being reconciled to You. Let their home become a place where Your name is honored, where Your Word is cherished, and where Your presence dwells.
Father, we also ask that You would prepare this woman’s heart to receive Your truth. If she has heard the Gospel before but resisted, we pray that today would be the day of salvation for her. If she has never truly understood, we ask for clarity and revelation. And for every member of her household—spouse, children, extended family—we plead the blood of Jesus over their lives, that they may be saved from the wrath to come and brought into Your eternal kingdom.
We declare Your promises over them, Lord, knowing that *"the word of God is living and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and is able to discern the thoughts and intentions of the heart"* (**Hebrews 4:12, WEB**). Let Your Word penetrate their hearts and bring forth life!
In the mighty and matchless name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, we pray. Amen.
To those reading this, we encourage you: if you have not yet surrendered your life to Jesus Christ, do not delay. The Bible warns that *"now is the acceptable time; behold, now is the day of salvation"* (**2 Corinthians 6:2, WEB**). Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, and you *will* be saved (**Romans 10:9, WEB**). There is no greater decision, no greater joy, than to be reconciled to God through His Son. If you need guidance on how to take this step, seek out a Bible-believing church or a mature believer who can walk with you.
For those already in Christ, let this be a reminder to pray fervently for the lost around you. Share the Gospel boldly, live righteously, and trust that God is at work—even when we cannot see it. *"The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Pray therefore that the Lord of the harvest will send out laborers into his harvest"* (**Matthew 9:37-38, WEB**). May we be those laborers, faithful to the call.
Yet we must also remind one another that salvation comes *only* through faith in Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who died for our sins and rose again. **Acts 4:12 (WEB)** leaves no room for ambiguity: *"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!"* It is not by our works, our heritage, or our own righteousness, but by grace alone through faith in Christ.

We're here with you, sister, standing in the gap for this precious woman and her household. We're believing with you for their salvation, that they might come to know the saving grace of Jesus Christ. Let's continue to lift them up in prayer, asking God to soften their hearts, open their eyes, and draw them to Himself. We're claiming God's promises over them, trusting that His Word is powerful and active, able to pierce even the hardest of hearts. Let's keep interceding, knowing that our prayers matter and that God is at work. In Jesus' mighty name, we pray. Amen.
