We hear the deep burden in your heart for this sister who professes Christ yet walks in a way that does not reflect true repentance or surrender to Him. You have spoken truth to her, and now we join you in crying out to the Lord on her behalf, for it is only by His power that hearts are transformed. The Scripture warns us in **Matthew 7:21-23 (WEB)**, *"Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of Heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will tell me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, didn’t we prophesy in your name, in your name cast out demons, and in your name do many mighty works?’ Then I will tell them, ‘I never knew you. Depart from me, you who work iniquity.’"* This is a sobering reminder that profession without obedience is empty, and outward religion without a changed heart is deception.
The Lord sees the hypocrisy of those who cling to the name of Christ for appearance or gain while their hearts remain far from Him. As you’ve pointed out, **Matthew 5:29-30 (WEB)** urges drastic action against sin: *"If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is more profitable for you that one of your members should perish than for your whole body to be cast into hell."* This is not a call to literal self-mutilation but a vivid illustration of the urgency to remove anything—pride, love of money, unrepentant sin—that stands between a soul and God. The danger is real: **Luke 12:15 (WEB)** warns, *"Beware! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life doesn’t consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses."* Yet how many are deceived, trusting in wealth or religious performance while their hearts are far from Him?
We also recall **Revelation 3:17-19 (WEB)**, where the Lord rebukes the church in Laodicea: *"Because you say, ‘I am rich, and have gotten riches, and have need of nothing;’ and don’t know that you are the wretched one, miserable, poor, blind, and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, that you may become rich; and white garments, that you may clothe yourself, and that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes, that you may see. As many as I love, I reprove and discipline. Be zealous therefore, and repent."* This is our prayer for her—that the Lord would strip away her self-deception, expose the poverty of her spiritual state, and grant her the gift of godly sorrow that leads to repentance (**2 Corinthians 7:10**).
Yet we must also examine our own hearts as we intercede. **Galatians 6:1 (WEB)** instructs, *"Brothers, even if a man is caught in some fault, you who are spiritual must restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness; looking to yourself so that you also aren’t tempted."* Have you spoken to her in love, or has frustration or anger tinged your words? We are not called to condemn but to urge repentance with humility, remembering that apart from Christ, we too were dead in sin (**Ephesians 2:1-5**). Let us pray that the Holy Spirit would convict her—not through our anger, but through the piercing truth of God’s Word and His relentless love.

**Our Prayer:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You with broken hearts for this sister who claims Your name yet walks in the futility of her own ways. Lord, You alone search the heart and test the mind (**Jeremiah 17:10**). If she is deceived, believing herself rich in faith while her heart is far from You, we beg You to shatter that deception. Strip away every false security—wealth, pride, religious pretense—and let her see herself as You see her: in need of a Savior. Grant her no peace in her sin, Lord, but pursue her with Your holy dissatisfaction until she surrenders fully to You.
Father, we ask that You unravel the sin in her life, whatever it may be—love of money, hypocrisy, unrepentant rebellion—and bring it into the light. Let conviction fall upon her like fire, that she may turn from her wicked ways and live (**Ezekiel 18:23**). Do not let her rest in a false assurance of salvation, but let the fear of the Lord grip her heart until she cries out for mercy. Remind her that *"the Lord is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness; but is patient with us, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance"* (**2 Peter 3:9**).
Give this brother wisdom and grace as he continues to speak truth in love. May his words be seasoned with salt (**Colossians 4:6**), and may he trust You to do the work only You can do. Protect him from bitterness or self-righteousness, and let his life reflect the same humility he desires to see in her.
Most of all, Lord, we pray for genuine revival in her soul. Let her be like the prodigal who *"came to himself"* (**Luke 15:17**) and returned to the Father. Break her heart for what breaks Yours, and let her find in You the treasure surpassing all earthly wealth. May she no longer be a *"part-time"* Christian but a sold-out disciple, counting all things as loss for the excellence of knowing Christ (**Philippians 3:8**).
We ask this in the mighty name of **Jesus Christ**, the only name by which anyone can be saved (**Acts 4:12**). Let His blood cover her sins, His Spirit transform her heart, and His Word be the lamp to her feet. Amen.

Finally, brother, we encourage you to keep praying and, if possible, to continue speaking truth to her in love. But remember: you cannot save her—only Christ can. Trust Him to do what you cannot. And if she hardens her heart, take comfort in **Ezekiel 3:19 (WEB)**: *"Yet if you warn the wicked, and he doesn’t turn from his wickedness or from his wicked way, he shall die in his iniquity; but you have delivered your soul."* You have been faithful to warn her; now entrust her to the Lord. He is able to save to the uttermost (**Hebrews 7:25**).
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.
