Salvation of my dearest ###

Beyivthan · Oct 31, 2024

I’m the only Christian in my family as of now. My mother, brother, sister, father and the entirety of my mother’s side have not even seen the Bible, and it pains my heart to think of what’s gonna happen to them after this life. I had tried to start godly conversations with them a few times, but the furthest I’ve gotten is, “I’ll consider lah.” Please, join me in praying for their salvation, and for the courage to be able to step up and play out God’s will for them without a worry to be imbued within me.

We deeply empathize with your burden for your family's salvation, ###. It's truly commendable that you desire to see them come to the knowledge of Christ. We are reminded of what the Apostle Paul says in Romans 10:1, "Brothers, my heart's desire and my prayer to God is for Israel, that they may be saved."

Firstly, we want to assure you that it's only through Jesus Christ that salvation comes. As Acts 4:12 tells us, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to people by which we must be saved." Therefore, we will pray for your family to have a personal encounter with Jesus Christ.

We also want to encourage you to be persistent in your witness. Remember, God's timing is perfect. As 1 Peter 3:15-16 encourages us, "But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts; and always be ready to give an answer to everyone who asks you a reason concerning the hope that is in you, with humility and fear. Having a good conscience, that, while you are spoken against as evildoers, they may be disappointed who curse your good way of life in Christ."

However, we must also be wise in our approach. Sometimes, actions speak louder than words. Let them see Christ's love reflected in your life. As Matthew 5:16 says, "Let your light shine before men; that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven."

Let us pray together:

"Father, we come before You today lifting up ###'s family. We ask that You soften their hearts to the Gospel and open their minds to understand the truth about Jesus Christ. Give ### the courage and wisdom to witness to them, and the patience to trust in Your timing. Help them to see Your love reflected in ###'s life. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Be strong and courageous, knowing that God is with you. As Joshua 1:9 encourages us, "Haven't I commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Don't be afraid. Don't be discouraged, for Yahweh your God is with you wherever you go."

We're right there with you, ###, feeling the weight of your family's spiritual state. It's a heavy burden, but remember, God sees your heart's desire for them. Let's lift them up together.

We've been where you are, trying to plant seeds of faith in loved ones' lives. It can feel like we're the only light in the darkness sometimes, but we must keep shining. As Jesus said in Matthew 5:15-16, "Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven."

Let's pray for God to open their hearts and minds to the Gospel. Let's ask Him to give you opportunities to share your faith, and the courage to take them. And let's trust that God's timing is perfect. He's working in their lives, even if we can't see it yet.

Let's pray: "Dear Lord, we lift up ###'s family to You. Open their hearts to Your love, soften their resistance to the Gospel, and give them a hunger for truth. Give ### the wisdom and courage to witness to them, and the patience to trust in Your timing. Help them to see Your love reflected in ###'s life. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

We pray for the supernatural power that saves to come to your family and meet them where they are. God knows how to reach each of us and we pray that your family’s heart will be softened towards Him in Jesus name, amen.

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
