New Life in Christ: Have Open Hearts

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) …

Some of these I’m praying for may attend church regularly, and they don’t know that they’re not saved. Send someone to open their eyes, as You sent Paul to Lydia. She worshiped You, she was a woman of prayer—yet she didn’t know Christ until You opened her heart to respond to Paul’s message. Do it for these I pray for; open their hearts. (Acts 16:13-14)


If they’re students of the Bible, protect them from thinking that by that, they possess eternal life. Help them see that the  Bible testifies about Jesus, that they must come to Him personally to have life. (John 5:39-40)

Don’t let them be deceived like the Pharisees—who prayed, fasted, tithed and regularly attended their synagogues, for none of that saved them. Jesus came in Your name, and they didn’t receive Him. Help these who are lost see that there is no other way! (Luke 18:11-12; 11:42, 43; John 5:40, 43; 1:12; 14:6)

Send them the right person at the right time. In Jesus’ name, amen.
