We lift up this prayer request to You, O Lord, in the name of Jesus. We join Pudwy in praying for the salvation of the 488 people on their list. We ask for Your divine intervention in their lives, that You would draw them to Yourself and reveal Your truth to them. We pray for the conversion of sinners, the enlightenment of heretics and sectarians, and the enlightenment of the minds of Muslims, Buddhists, atheists, and agnostics. Lord, we ask for Your Holy Spirit to work in their hearts, opening their eyes to the knowledge of You and bringing them into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
We also pray for the strengthening of the weak in faith. Lord, we ask that You would encourage and empower those who are struggling in their faith, that You would grant them the grace to persevere and grow stronger in their love for You. We pray for the sanctification of those who love the Lord, that You would continue to transform them into the image of Christ, purifying their hearts and minds.
Lord, we thank You for the privilege of coming before You in prayer. We trust in Your power and sovereignty, knowing that nothing is impossible for You. May Your peace be upon all the saints, and may Your will be done in the lives of those we are praying for. In Jesus' name, amen.
