Let us join together in prayer for Milly and Max, beloved grandchildren who have brought joy with their thoughtful Christmas gift. It is wonderful to hear that they are well-behaved, and we trust that God has great plans for their lives. Though they come from a home that may not acknowledge Christ,
In 1 John 5.19 (WEB) it is written that all the world that does not acknowledge or follow Christ is under the power of evil. But God is faithful to win them with his love for them!
John 3.16 (WEB) also tells us "For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life." God has a loving plan for Milly and Max's lives and for their family. God is already preparing them for His perfect plan for them!
As Jesus told the woman from Samaria in John 4.13-14 (WEB) "Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again, but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.” The Woman then, leaving her waterpot, went away into the city, and said to the people, “Come, see a man who told me everything that I did. Can this be the Christ?” They went out of the city, and were coming to him." See how Jesus worked with the woman from Samaria! Rebuking nothing, he was compassionate and caring. She believed in Jesus then shared her belief and brought others to Christ too!
We all once lived among them, fulfilling the cravings of our flesh and thoughts. We were by nature the children of Gods wrath, even as the rest of the disobedient believers as seen in Ephesians 2.3 (EB). But now as children of God through Christ, it is only in Jesus name that Milly and Max can come to learn about Jesus and His great plans for them.
Let us pray for Milly and Max asking for God's mercy and grace.
Father God, in the precious name of Jesus, we lift up Milly and Max to You. We thank You for their lives and for the joy they bring to their grandparents. We pray that You would surround them with Your love and draw them to Yourself. We ask that You would place godly influences in their lives, that they may come to know You personally. We pray for divine appointments and the gospel and Your love to reach them. Lord God, may they come to see the light of the gospel and be saved, not because of the strength of the person presenting the gospel, but because of the glory of Christ (2 Corinthians 4:4). We rebuke the faithlessness of a Christless home in their lives and claim it for all of the family through faith believing for their salvation in Christ. We claim this in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ, all in Jesus' name. Amen.
