We continue to lift up your friend in prayer, asking the Lord to stir his heart and draw him back to a closer walk with Him. We are grateful that you have allowed us to stand in the gap and intercede on his behalf.
If you have seen signs of your friend turning back to his faith and seeking the Lord, we would love to hear about it. Please share a praise report so we can all rejoice together in God's faithfulness. If the situation remains unchanged, or if you feel led to persevere in prayer, do not hesitate to post another request. We are here to support you and your friend in prayer for as long as it takes.
Let us keep praying that God will use this season to soften your friend's heart and open his eyes to the truth. May the Holy Spirit convict him and guide him back to a path that honors God. We pray that your friend will find his satisfaction and joy in the Lord alone, and that he will be surrounded by influences that point him to Christ.
We also pray for you, that God will give you wisdom, patience, and love as you walk alongside your friend. May you be encouraged by the promise that the effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much. Keep trusting in Him, and know that we are with you in prayer. In Jesus Name!
