Father, I pray for (name one or more) …
You are the Lord of the Harvest, and I ask You to plant the seeds of truth in the hearts of these who need salvation. Only You can help them to see the cross and understand their need of our Savior, to know Him as the Son of the living God. Reveal Christ to them. (Matthew 9:38; 16:16-17)
Send Your workers into the field, people they trust, whose very lives will be the salt and light they need to see. Send someone into their lives as You sent Peter to Cornelius; help them to be as ready as Cornelius was to listen to the truth. May the Holy Spirit come upon them even as they hear, with His saving power. (Matthew 9:38; 5:13, 14; Acts 10:30-33, 44)
Give them faith to believe in the name of the Lord Jesus as Savior and Redeemer and to receive Him into their hearts. May they confess with their mouths, “Jesus is Lord” and believe in their hearts that You raised Him from the dead. (Ephesians 2:8-9; John 1:12; Luke 2:11; Isaiah 47:4; Romans 10:9)
May they hear the truth, and believe it. In Jesus’ name, amen.

New Life in Christ: Hear Your Words
The following is a prayer in our New Life in Christ series. To read more, or order your own copy of one of our prayer guides, visit us here.
Father, I pray for (name one or more) …
You are the God who gives life to the spiritually dead. (Romans 4:17)
I thank You that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. But Scripture asks, how can these I’m praying for call on Jesus if they have not believed in Him? And how can they believe in Him if they’ve not heard about Him? And how can they hear without someone bringing the truth to them? And how can they hear, unless that person is sent? (Romans 10:13-15)
I ask You to send someone into each of their lives, someone with the message of life, the Word of Christ—for Your Word does not return empty, it accomplishes what You desire and achieves the purpose for which it is sent. (Romans 10:17; Isaiah 55:11)
May they hear the words of Christ—for His words are spirit and they are life. May the words that they hear not be stolen from their hearts. (John 6:63; Luke 8:12)
Send someone they can respect, to bring them the truth. In Jesus’ name, amen.
