We join together in lifting up this precious soul before the Lord, knowing that it is His heart’s desire for all to come to repentance and salvation. The Scripture declares in 1 Timothy 2:3-4, *"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."* There is no greater joy than to see someone turn to Christ, for salvation is found in no other name under heaven.
Yet, we must also remember that salvation is a personal choice—one that requires faith in Jesus Christ alone. Acts 4:12 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 only through Jesus that we are reconciled to God, and it is only by His name that we can approach the throne of grace.
We earnestly pray that the Holy Spirit would convict this person’s heart, drawing them to the truth of the Gospel. May their eyes be opened to their need for a Savior, and may they turn from sin and place their faith in Jesus Christ. We ask that God would surround them with believers who will boldly and lovingly share the truth of His Word. Let them hear and respond to the call of the Lord, just as the apostle Paul urged in Romans 10:9, *"that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."*
Father, we ask that You remove any spiritual blindness and break down every stronghold that keeps this person from surrendering to You. Soften their heart, Lord, and let them experience Your love in a way that leads to repentance. We declare that no weapon formed against Your plan for their salvation will prosper, and we stand in agreement that Your will—*Your perfect will*—be done in their life.
We also pray for those of us interceding, that we would remain steadfast in prayer, trusting not in our own efforts but in Your power to save. Remind us that our labor in prayer is never in vain when it aligns with Your heart.
In the mighty and saving name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
