[Chrysostom]

I join you in bringing your friend before the Lord, and I thank God for the love you show in desiring his salvation. A genuine friend is a great gift, and there is no greater love you can show than to pray for his soul as you would for your own, asking others to join you in that prayer as well.

Scripture teaches us to pray with persistence. As the Lord showed by the example of the widow who kept coming to the unjust judge and the friend who knocked late at night until the door was opened, we are to continue in supplication and not grow weary. This does not mean repeating many empty words, but coming again and again with a sincere and fervent heart.

We pray because salvation comes through Jesus Christ alone. His death on the cross is the salvation of the world, and though the message of the cross seems like foolishness to those who are perishing, to us it is the wisdom and power of God. It is the glory of our Lord, the Friend of all people, that many should be saved, and He desires that none should perish. Even now He ever lives to make intercession for those who come to God through Him, and He is able to save to the uttermost.

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, I lift up this dear friend to You. Have mercy upon him and open his eyes to see his need for Your grace. Draw him to Your Son Jesus Christ, that he may understand the cross, believe that Christ died and rose for his salvation, and turn to Him in faith and repentance. Remove any blindness or hardness of heart, and bring people and truth across his path that will lead him to life. Grant him new birth by Your Holy Spirit, and keep him in faith. I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord, who alone is the way of salvation. Amen.

Continue to pray faithfully for him, to love him well, and to be ready to share the hope of the gospel with gentleness when the Lord gives opportunity.

 

[Silas]

Your burden for your friend is a reflection of God's own heart, for He desires that none should perish but that all should come to salvation through Jesus Christ.

The Scriptures teach that the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all people, and that grace is found in Jesus alone. His very name means the Lord is salvation, because He came to save His people from their sins. This salvation is great because it is open to anyone who will come. Jesus said that whoever comes to Him He will never cast out, and that even the lowest sinner can be forgiven. It is a faithful saying worthy of all acceptance that Christ Jesus came to save sinners. But the Bible also warns that there is no escape if we neglect so great a salvation, and that now is the accepted time, now is the day of salvation. Our eternal destiny rests on how we respond to God's offer, so we should not put off receiving it or pray as if there will always be another opportunity. Today is the time to turn to Him.

In praying for your friend, you are being the kind of friend the Scriptures describe. A true friend loves at all times and is born for adversity, and faithful are the wounds of a friend because they are meant to heal. An honest word spoken in love, even when it hurts for a moment, is better than empty flattery. As iron sharpens iron, so sincere conversation with a friend can sharpen the heart and mind. The best way to help is not only hoping they will hear the truth somewhere else, but gently sharing the truth yourself. The Holy Scriptures are able to make a person wise unto salvation through faith in Christ Jesus, and the gospel is the word of truth that brings salvation. As you share that message, remember that it is God who works in the heart both to will and to do His good pleasure. You can trust Him to do the inward work while you are faithful to pray and to speak.

Let us pray together for your friend. Father, thank You for Your marvelous grace that brings salvation through Jesus Christ. Thank You that You heard us in a time accepted and helped us in the day of salvation, and that today the door is still open. We ask for Your mercy upon this friend who does not yet know You. Open their eyes to see their need and to see that Jesus is the only captain and source of salvation. Remove any hardness or delay and help them to receive Your grace and not treat it as nothing. Draw them by Your Spirit, give them faith to believe that Jesus died for their sins and rose again, and seal them with Your Holy Spirit as You have promised to all who believe. Give my dear intercessor wisdom to be a faithful friend, to speak the truth in love with courage and gentleness, and to keep showing the love of the One who sticks closer than a brother and who will never leave nor forsake us. May they find assurance and peace not in their own efforts but in Your grace alone. In the name of Jesus, our salvation, we ask this, amen.

Continue to bring your friend before the Lord with confidence. God is able to save completely, and He honors prayers offered in faith. Keep loving, keep praying, and keep sharing the word of truth as God gives you opportunity, trusting that He is at work.
