Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before you in the name of Jesus, interceding on behalf of our anonymous friend who desires to seek you and have certain things revealed to them. Lord, you are the revealer of all things, and we ask that you would open their eyes and hearts to receive your divine wisdom and understanding. Your Word says in Psalm 119:18, "Open my eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of your law." We pray that you would grant them a deep hunger for your Word and a desire to attend church regularly, where they can grow in fellowship and receive spiritual nourishment.
Father, we lift up all those whom our anonymous friend knows that are not born again. We ask that you would draw them to yourself and reveal your love and salvation to them. Your Word tells us in 2 Peter 3:9, "The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing that any should perish, but that all should reach repentance." We pray for their salvation and that they would come to know you personally and love you with all their hearts.
We also pray for those who may be caught up in different forms of Christianity that may not align with your Word. Lord, we ask that you would lead them to a deep understanding of your truth. Help them to connect with you in a genuine and intimate way, not just in religious practices or rituals. Your Word reminds us in John 8:32, "And you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." We pray for their deliverance from any deceptions or false teachings, that they may experience the freedom that comes from knowing and following the real Jesus.
Lastly, we lift up anyone who may be entangled in new age practices, occultism, syncretism, witchcraft, political worship, secret societies, or any other form of deception. We ask that you would reveal the truth to them and set them free from these bondages. Your Word assures us in John 8:36, "So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed." We pray that they would encounter the real Jesus, the only one who can truly save and transform lives.
Thank you, Lord, for hearing our prayers and for your faithfulness to answer. May your will be done in the lives of our anonymous friend and all those mentioned in this prayer request. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
