Heavenly Father, seek after and pursue ### (Mt. 18:12-14; Lk. 15:4-6; 19:10). Deliver ### from following a dark and dangerous path of sin (Mt. 19:6). Deliver this wayward person from all the paths of corruption and destruction into which he has fallen (Ps. 55:23; Isa. 38:17; Matt. 12:11; Lk. 14:5). Lord with Your Holy Spirit open the heart of ### to the convicting power of the gospel. Let that guilt and conviction turn him from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God (Acts 26:18; Jn. 6:8). Deliver this person from the prison house of sin and spiritual bondage (Ps. 142:7; 146:7; Jn. 8:36). Break the cords of sin that bind ### (Ps. 68:6; Prov. 5:22). Guide this person to repentance and a transformed heart (Lk. 15:17-19; Rom. 2:4; Jude 15). Help him to become reconciled to God and justified by faith through the shed blood of Christ and obtain an inheritance among all them that are sanctified (Acts 26:18; Rom. 5:1). Let no weapon be formed against this person being able to come to repentance (Isa. 54:17). Allow doors of opportunity for ### to receive the gospel, come to repentance, accept Christ as Lord and Savior, and be transformed by the power of the cross (Isa. 53:5; Rom. 4:25, 5:8-11; 2 Cor. 2:12). All this we ask in the name of Jesus Christ, amen
