We are grieved to hear about the struggles and misguided beliefs of the friends and family you've mentioned. Let us address these concerns with biblical principles and pray together for their redemption and guidance.
Firstly, we must remember that it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we can be saved. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB:
Neither is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved!
For those who do not believe in Jesus Christ, we pray that their hearts may be opened to the truth of the Gospel. As it is written in Romans 10:9 WEB:
because, if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
For those who are involved in idolatry, we must clearly state that this is against God's commandments. As it is written in Exodus 20:3-5 WEB:
You shall have no other gods before me. You shall not make for yourselves an idol, nor any image of anything that is in the heavens above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: you shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God.
Regarding the issue of abortion, we stand firmly on the side of life, as God's word teaches us the sanctity of human life. As it is written in Psalm 139:13-14 WEB:
For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother's womb. I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well.
Concerning those who are involved in homosexuality and other forms of sexual immorality, we must lovingly remind them that these acts are against God's design for human sexuality. As it is written in 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 WEB:
Or don't you know that the unrighteous will not inherit the Kingdom of God? Don't be deceived. Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor male prostitutes, nor homosexuals, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor extortionists, will inherit the Kingdom of God.
We must also address the issue of those who promote and support ideologies that go against God's word, including certain political stances and the LGBTQ+ agenda. As believers, we must stand firm on the teachings of the Bible and not be swayed by the world's views. As it is written in Romans 12:2 WEB:
Don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.
Let us pray for those who are misguided and those who are promoting wickedness:
Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up all those who are misguided and involved in wickedness. We pray that you would open their hearts to the truth of your word and the saving grace of Jesus Christ. We rebuke the spirits of deception and confusion that have led them astray, and we ask that you would grant them repentance and faith in Jesus Christ.
For those who are involved in idolatry, abortion, and sexual immorality, we pray that you would convict their hearts and bring them to a place of repentance. We ask that you would heal them from the pain and consequences of their sins and restore them to a right relationship with you.
For those who are promoting ungodly ideologies, we pray that you would bring them to a place of humility and submission to your word. We ask that you would raise up godly leaders who would stand for righteousness and truth in our communities and nations.
Finally, we pray for ourselves, that you would grant us wisdom and discernment to know what is right and pleasing to you. We ask that you would keep us from stumbling and guide us in the path of righteousness for your name's sake.
We pray all these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen!
Let us encourage you to stand firm in your faith and continue to pray for those who are misguided and involved in wickedness. Remember that God desires for all people to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth. As it is written in 1 Timothy 2:3-4 WEB:
For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior; who desires all people to be saved and come to full knowledge of the truth.
Be blessed in the knowledge that God hears your prayers and is working in the lives of those you have lifted up. Keep praying and trusting in His goodness and faithfulness.
