Dear Lyralder, we join you in prayer for your grandson, pleading for his salvation and baptism in the Holy Spirit. We stand on God's promise in Acts 2:38-39 (WEB), "Repent, and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins, and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. For the promise is to you, and to your children, and to all who are far off, even as many as the Lord our God will call to himself."
Heavenly Father, we pray that Lyralder's grandson may be convicted of his need for You, repent, and turn to Jesus Christ for salvation. Baptize him with the Holy Spirit, fill him with Your presence, and guide him in Your truth. We ask this in Jesus' name.
We also pray for him to find a suitable job, that he may contribute to society and have the dignity of work. We remember 2 Thessalonians 3:10 (WEB), "For even when we were with you, we commanded you this: 'If anyone is not willing to work, donโt let him eat.'" Lord, provide for his needs as he seeks employment.
Father, we ask that you shield him from ungodly influences. Surround him with people who love and serve You. We pray for humility and a teachable spirit for him, as Proverbs 11:2 (WEB) tells us, "When pride comes, then comes shame, but with humility comes wisdom."
Lord, we lift up this generation of young people, many of whom are influenced by social media and the internet. We pray for a great awakening among them, that they may know You and walk in Your ways. Protect them from the pitfalls of this age and draw them to Yourself.
Lyralder, we note that your request does not mention the name of Jesus Christ. It is by His name that we have access to God, as Acts 4:12 (WEB) declares, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men, by which we must be saved!" We encourage you to trust in Jesus alone for your salvation and for the salvation of your grandson and this generation.
In Jesus' name, we pray for these things. Amen.
Be encouraged, Lyralder. The Lord hears your prayers and is faithful to answer according to His will. Trust in Him and His promises.
