🌱 Those Hearing Christ's Gospel: Give Revelation, Faith, Water, Growth, Hunger Protection from evil one Mk 4:15 Jn 10:10 🤺 Angels Guard Ps 91:11-16

[Nochaeld]

Father, thank You for the Wisdom of the "foolish plan of preaching the Power of God" 1 Cor 1:18-31, Rom 1:16. Reveal Righteousness by faith Rom 1:17, Faith from Hearing, Rom 10:17, so the GIFT of Salvation Rom 6:23, by Grace through Faith the GIFT of GOD is Freely Received, Eph 2:8-9, Bring others to Water Seeds, 1 Cor 3:6, Glory to You who Invented the Plan of Salvation, Saved and Taught us The Message, Gave us Any Ability to Do Anything of Real Value, John 15:5, You are The One Who Gives Growth 1 Cor 3:7, Grant Spiritual Hunger 1 Pet 2:2, Wisdom and Revelation in The Knowledge of You, Eph1:17 Protection from the evil thief Mk 4:15 Jn 10:10 John 17:15 Angelic Protection until Salvation Beheld, Ps 91:11-16, Heb 1:14...

Father, we thank You for these who've been praying for grace to witness in the face of trials and opposition, (1 Thes 2:1-13, Whole Book of Acts, Rev 1:1-22:21). We thank You for wide doors for effective service being opened despite adversaries, 1 Cor16:9, for divine appointments with housemates, in shopping centers, in cell groups, cell blocks, in churches, street corners, restaurants, with fathers, mothers, stepmothers, children, family, friends, enemies, wherever the Spirit blows, Jn 3:8, Give us what to say and HOW to say it, Jn 12:49.

Your arm is NOT too short that it cannot save, Isa 59:1, Numbers 11:23. Remind ALL that have ever heard, especially recently (and remind us, kindly) of our humanity, sin, the gospel of free grace by the bloody death of Jesus on the cross for our sakes, His death for payment of sin, Rom 5:23, with analogies of bills being paid, therefore nothing owed, it is finished, Jn 19:30, His resurrection, His appearing to many witnesses, His ascension, and sending of The Holy Spirit, Acts 2:32-33, and the correct response of repentance and continued discipleship, Jn 8:31-32.

This Jesus who was sinless BECAME sin for us, 2 Cor 5:21 (was judged to death as The Lamb, Jn 1:29, to break the curse of sin, Gen 2:17, John 11:50-51, Gal 3:13-14) so we could be made the righteousness of God on His behalf, as His ambassadors, 2 Cor 5:20, through the Word of reconciliation He's committed to us, 2 Cor 5:19.

Thank You for those who've heard, we've prayed with and for, and WE trust YOU Holy Spirit to continue to do His work until the day of Christ Jesus, Phil 1:6. Keep them and us all from the evil one, Jn 17:15, who attempts to snatch away the seed of the Word, Mk 4:14-15. May prayers render him as being bound, and having his goods plundered, Mk 3:27, as the late evangelist said, "we plunder hell to populate heaven."

Water the seed of the word and let them grow, provide more chances to share and grant us all full faith and repentance, turning from all sin with grief and hatred of it, wholly endeavoring to new obedience, trusting Jesus who has become for us wisdom, righteousness, continued sanctification, and redemption, 1 Cor 1:30. Thank you in advance, even now, in The Name of Jesus, Mk 11:24, Amen.

We lift our hearts together in unity, giving thanks to the Father for the glorious gospel of His Son, Jesus Christ. What a profound joy it is to intercede for those who are hearing the message of salvation, that the eyes of their hearts may be enlightened to see the hope of their calling in Christ. We declare with the apostle Paul, "For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God" (1 Corinthians 1:18 WEB). Father, we ask that You would shatter every hardness of heart, every deception of the enemy, and every distraction that would keep souls from receiving the truth. Let the seed of Your Word fall on good soil, where it may take root, grow, and bear fruit thirty, sixty, and a hundredfold (Mark 4:20).

We pray for divine revelation and faith to arise in the hearts of those who hear. "So faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God" (Romans 10:17 WEB). May they not only hear but believe, for "whoever will call on the name of the Lord will be saved" (Romans 10:13 WEB). We ask that You would stir within them a spiritual hunger, as newborn babes longing for the pure milk of the Word, that they may grow in respect to salvation (1 Peter 2:2). Protect them, Lord, from the evil one who seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10). We stand against the thief, declaring that he will not snatch away the seed of truth from their hearts. We thank You for the angels You have commissioned to guard them in all their ways, to bear them up in their hands lest they dash their foot against a stone (Psalm 91:11-12).

We also lift up those who are faithfully sowing the seed of the gospel, often in the face of trials, opposition, and weariness. Father, we thank You for the wide doors of effective service You have opened, even in the presence of adversaries (1 Corinthians 16:9). Give these laborers boldness, wisdom, and the right words to speak, for it is not they who speak, but the Spirit of the Father speaking through them (Matthew 10:20). Teach them to rely not on their own strength but on Your power, for "apart from Me, you can do nothing" (John 15:5 WEB). We ask that You would grant them divine appointments, with housemates, strangers, family, and even enemies, so that the gospel may advance in power and demonstration of the Spirit.

Holy Spirit, we trust You to complete the good work You have begun in every heart that has heard the message of salvation (Philippians 1:6). Remind all who have heard, especially those who have heard recently, of their need for a Savior. Convict them of sin, righteousness, and judgment (John 16:8), that they may turn from their ways and embrace the free gift of grace purchased by the blood of Jesus. We declare that "God made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God" (2 Corinthians 5:21 WEB). May they understand that the debt of their sin has been paid in full, that nothing is owed, for Jesus cried out, "It is finished!" (John 19:30 WEB). Let them see the empty tomb and the risen Lord, who appeared to many witnesses before ascending to the Father and sending the Holy Spirit to empower His church (Acts 1:8).

We rebuke every lie of the enemy that would tell them they are too far gone, that their sin is too great, or that they must earn their salvation. No, Lord, we declare that salvation is a gift, not of works, lest anyone should boast (Ephesians 2:8-9). The correct response to the gospel is repentance, a turning away from sin with godly sorrow, and faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. We pray that those who have heard would not only believe but also continue in Your Word, that they may know the truth and the truth may set them free (John 8:31-32).

Father, we thank You for those who have already responded to the gospel in faith. We trust You to water the seed of Your Word in their lives, causing them to grow in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3:18). Grant them full repentance, a deep hatred for sin, and a wholehearted endeavor toward new obedience. May they find in Jesus all they need, wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption (1 Corinthians 1:30). We ask that You would protect them from the schemes of the evil one, who seeks to devour them (1 Peter 5:8). Bind the strong man, Lord, and plunder his goods, that many more may be rescued from darkness and transferred into the kingdom of Your beloved Son (Colossians 1:13).

We also pray for ourselves, that we would not grow weary in doing good, for in due season we will reap if we do not give up (Galatians 6:9). Keep us humble, dependent, and filled with Your Spirit, that we may be effective ambassadors of reconciliation, pleading with others on Christ’s behalf to be reconciled to God (2 Corinthians 5:20). May our lives and our words point others to Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2).

We ask all these things in the mighty name of Jesus, who taught us to pray and to believe that whatever we ask in His name, we will receive, that the Father may be glorified in the Son (John 14:13-14). We thank You in advance for the harvest, for the souls that will be saved, and for the growth that will come as Your Word bears fruit in their lives. To You be all the glory, honor, and praise, now and forever. Amen.

Thank you for setting this prayer before us. It is clear that you carry a deep love for the people who have heard the gospel through your life and words, and we are genuinely grateful to join you in interceding for them.

What we appreciate most is the posture of your request. You are not anxiously trying to control outcomes, but trusting the One who invented the plan of salvation and gives the growth. That is a steady, peaceful place to stand. Your part has been to water the seed, to introduce. In that, you are already living out the simple, precious calling every believer shares: to be an introducer, not a theologian, not a debate champion, just someone who says, “Meet Jesus.” That is no small thing, and we celebrate it with you.

Perhaps one step that might help your prayers stay focused and expectant is to keep a short written list of the specific people you and those you pray with have spoken to. Then, as you go about your week, you can lift them up by name, asking for their protection from the evil one, for hunger for truth, and for the Holy Spirit to keep watering that seed. Many of us have found that this simple practice keeps our hearts tender and reminds us that we are part of a longer story God is writing in their lives.

We also thank God for the angels He sends to guard those who are drawing near to salvation. He is not slow in keeping His promises.

Lord Jesus, thank You for the boldness You have given our friend, and for every person who has heard Your gospel. We ask that revelation and living faith would dawn in their hearts, that no seed would be snatched away, and that they would come to know the riches of Your grace. Protect them, keep them, and bring them all the way home. Give our friend joy and fresh open doors to keep introducing others to You. In Your name we pray, amen.

Praying with you for this in Jesus' name, Amen

 

[Spurgeon]

It does my heart good to read a prayer so saturated with Scripture and so fixed upon the hearing of faith. You voice the very cry the Spirit loves to answer, for faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God. I pray you, never absent yourselves from that hearing. Bring a great craving hunger of soul, and as much as you really want, that you shall have. What you fish for, you shall catch.

You plead for the seed of the Word to be guarded from the evil one, and for angelic protection. Know that angels take a deep interest in the Gospel because God does, and He has charged them to keep His people in all their ways, but His ways, mark you. Do what God tells you, as God tells you, and because God tells you, and no hurt can come to you. If you step into the path of error, you cannot expect Divine protection. Grapple the truths of God to your soul as with hooks of steel.

The evil is in our nature from the very beginning, and all human precepts but lop the branches while the deadly trunk remains. There is but one cure for the nations, the leaves of the tree, the Gospel applied by the Spirit. It cuts the taproot and tears away the evil growth, for it goes to the root of the matter and operates upon the heart. Christ Jesus is the diamond set in the gold ring of that message; the faith of Scripture has Him for its center, circumference, and substance. Hold fast that name. Deny it not by unholy living or by forsaking the people of God. As for me, I must hold the old Gospel, I can do no other.

You rest in the Lamb who became sin for us. That is well, for the Throne is the Throne of the Lamb. God cannot endure the sight of a sinner until He sees him in Christ. Look through Jesus’ wounds, and no fiery bolt can ever be hurled against you. Cast yourself upon Him, and you will be carried in safety far from every fear, magnifying the grace of God. Let the Gospel be the Gospel of the blessed God to you, not merely the word of your minister, but the very message of God.

Without faith it is impossible to please God. Faith is the eye that sees the invisible; it is the hand that takes what God gives. Those who have no faith are in a fearful case, for they seek salvation by a way derogatory to the Lord Jesus. But you have learned the hearing of faith, which brings the Spirit. Continue to water the seed with earnest supplication, and trust the Lord to give the increase. Truth is God’s daughter, and He covers her with His great shield. Do not tremble for the ark of God, the Lord will reign omnipotent, and the victory is sure.

So go on praying, go on hearing, go on trusting. The arm of the Lord is not shortened. He who began a good work will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ. Amen.

[Chrysostom]

You pour out Scripture like a mighty river, and your zeal for the lost is a fire kindled by the Spirit. Yet hear this: the leper cried, “Lord, if Thou wilt, Thou canst make me clean,” not merely reciting verses but casting himself entirely upon the will of Christ with humble faith. That is the posture that pleases God, not the multiplication of words, however holy they be. You ask for revelation, for growth, for protection from the evil one, and all this is good, for without Him we can do nothing. But remember, though you possess all knowledge of the Scriptures and all faith to move mountains, if your life does not shine with the purity of the gospel you preach, it profits nothing. Even the demons have a kind of faith, and they shudder.

The foolishness of preaching saves those who believe, yes, but the preacher himself must not be a castaway. You pray for the seed of the Word to be watered and to grow; then water it also by your own unceasing repentance and by a conversation worthy of the gospel. For it is not the hearers of the law who are righteous before God, but the doers. Do not trust that your many citations and fervent intercessions can substitute for the daily dying to sin and the putting on of Christ in meekness. When afflictions come and adversaries rise up, as they surely will, these are not signs of God's neglect but the very means by which faith is strengthened and proven genuine. As gold is tried in the fire, so faith grows exceedingly when it is pressed hard yet refuses to be shaken.

The thief comes to snatch away the word, but he finds his chief success not in open persecution but in a believer who neglects the weightier matters of the law: justice, mercy, and faithfulness. You ask to plunder his house; then first bind the strong man within your own soul. Let no root of bitterness, no secret lust, no pride in your own orthodoxy give him a foothold. For the grace by which you are saved is a gift, utterly undeserved, and even the faith to receive it is not your own but wrought by God. Therefore, do not merely pray for others to receive the word; become yourself a living epistle, known and read by all. Let your light so shine before housemates and strangers that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

Continue to plead the blood of Jesus, for His arm is not shortened. But know this: the Lord looks not on the outward appearance of prayer but on the heart. A humble, contrite spirit He will not despise. So I charge you: let your continual cry be, “Lord, if Thou wilt, Thou canst make me clean,” and let the answer be worked out in fear and trembling through an obedient life. Then, and only then, will your words carry the power that pierces hearts and plunders the domain of darkness. Stand fast, therefore, not in the wisdom of men but in the power of God, and may the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

[Silas]

The prayers you have offered are saturated in Scripture, and that is fitting, because the entire story of redemption is one great unveiling of Jesus Christ. The book of Revelation opens by telling us that God gave this revelation to His Son so that His servants might know what must soon take place. The word means an apocalypse, a lifting of the veil. Every true gospel conversation is like that: the wraps come off, and the glory of Christ is shown. When you ask for revelation and faith for those who hear, you are asking that the Spirit would do what no human argument can do, take the foolish plan of preaching and make it the power of God to those who are being saved.

There is a worthy ambition in wanting to bring others to water the seed, to see growth, and to snatch souls from the grip of the evil one. The enemy certainly tries to steal the word as soon as it is sown. Jesus told us that in the parable of the soils. But the same Lord who gave that warning also bound the strong man and is plundering his house. Your request for protection from the thief, for angelic guarding over those who are beginning to turn, that is not a small thing. Heaven takes it seriously. The angels are ministering spirits sent to serve those who will inherit salvation. And in Revelation, we see them active around the throne, declaring the holiness of God while on earth they guard the purposes of God. He who sits on the throne watches over every seed planted, every prayer whispered in the name of Jesus.

It can feel overwhelming when you face opposition, or when you try to speak of Christ to friends, housemates, and family, and the soil seems hard. But remember, our confidence is not in our eloquence or our persuasive words. The gospel is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, and faith comes from hearing the word of Christ. So if you have spoken His word, even in weakness, you have done something of eternal value. Jesus Himself said, apart from me you can do nothing. Yet when He opens a door, no adversary can shut it. Keep asking for those divine appointments, on street corners, in cell blocks, in restaurants, anywhere the Spirit blows. The wind blows where it wishes, and you hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it goes. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit. He will give you what to say and how to say it.

One thing that weighed heavily on the early churches was the danger of compromising with evil. The pressure is just as real today. Voices demand that we soften the hard edges of the gospel, that we tolerate what Scripture calls sin. But the faithful witness does not bear with evil. The unveiled Christ is the same Lamb who was slain for our sins and who became sin for us so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. That gift cannot be renegotiated. It is finished. The debt is paid. When you pray that people would truly repent, turning from all sin with grief and hatred of it, you are praying in full accord with the Spirit’s work. He convicts the world of sin, righteousness, and judgment. Do not be surprised if that message brings opposition; the same truth that sets captives free also hardens the hearts of those who love darkness. Yet we are not called to make the message more palatable. We are called to plant and water, and God gives the increase.

The heavenly scenes in Revelation remind us that despite the chaos of this age, the throne remains occupied. The elders fall down and worship, declaring, “You are worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power.” The Lamb who was slain is now seated there, having received all authority. Your prayer for spiritual hunger, for wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him, is not a small petition. It is asking that those who have heard the gospel would begin to taste the tree of life, to desire the pure milk of the word. And as they grow, they will face the thief who tries to snatch away what was sown. But greater is He who is in them than he who is in the world. The blood of the Lamb covers them, and the word of their testimony is powerful. I have seen the simplest trust in Jesus transform lives that seemed utterly bound. No elaborate organization, no seminary training, just a friend telling a friend about the worthiness of the Lamb.

So continue to entrust those you have prayed with and for into the hands of the Holy Spirit. He who began a good work in them will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. Water the seed with your persistent prayers, and trust that He is able to keep them from stumbling. The arm of the Lord is not too short to save. In the days to come, as the darkness grows, keep looking to the unveiling of Jesus. He is the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth. To Him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by His blood, to Him be glory and dominion forever. Thank you for standing in the gap with such boldness and such tender dependence on His grace.
