Father, I pray for (name one or more) …
May they not mentally stumble over Christ and who He is, for He is a stumbling block to some and is like foolishness to others. It’s because they can’t understand; in their natural state spiritual truth is beyond them. (1 Corinthians 1:23; 2:14)
Give them the gift of faith, a measure of faith that will enable them to look to Jesus and believe in Him; if they do, they’ll have eternal life. May they come to know Christ as the resurrection and the life—for whoever believes in Him will live and will never die. (Ephesians 2:8; Romans 12:3; John 6:40; 11:25-26)
Help them to see Jesus as He is, Your Son, and to realize the truth that He died for their sins. Otherwise, He becomes like a stone that blocks their way, a rock that makes them fall, because they can’t believe Your truth.
Have mercy and as they walk in the dark, help them see a great light. May they understand that the brightness of Your glory is seen in the face of Christ, that You and He are one. (John 10:36; Hebrews 7:27; Isaiah 8:14; 9:2; 2 Corinthians 4:6; John 10:30)
Help them to believe. In Jesus’ name, amen.

New Life in Christ: Be Set Free
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) …
May these who need salvation be set free from the kingdom of darkness, from the law of sin and death. Bring them to their senses, that they may escape from the trap of the devil, who wants to keep them as his own. (Colossians 1:13; Romans 8:2; 2 Timothy 2:26; John 8:44)
Thank You that Jesus appeared on earth to undo Satan’s work, and that by dying, Jesus rendered the devil powerless. Jesus came to set the oppressed free, and when the Son sets them free, they are free indeed. May these in need of You know the truth—the way, the truth and the life!—for the truth will set them free. (Hebrews 2:14-15; Luke 4:18; John 14:6; 8:36, 32)
Satan blinds the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel. I ask that You let Your light shine out of the darkness and into their hearts. Call them out of the darkness into Your wonderful light—for You don’t want anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. (2 Corinthians 4:4, 6; 1 Peter 2:9; 2 Peter 3:9)
Set them free, that they may come.
In Jesus’ name, amen.

New Life in Christ: Know the Price Is Paid
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) …
I come on behalf of these who are not yet saved to thank You that the price has been paid for their salvation. Jesus has made the sacrifice, He has bought them with His blood—they just don’t know it, they have not been enabled to see the truth. (1 John 4:10; Revelation 5:9; John 6:65)
Help them to understand that Jesus gave Himself for them, to redeem them—He gave Himself as a sacrifice, once for all. Christ died as a ransom to set them free from their sins. He is able to save them completely, if they will only believe! (Titus 2:13-14; Hebrews 9:26, 15; 7:25; John 8:24)
They can’t accept who Christ is. He is like a stumbling block to them, until You call them, but if You do, they’ll see Christ as He is. Speak to them, Father, for everyone who listens to You and learns from You will come to Christ. Help them believe, for everyone who believes has everlasting life. (1 Corinthians 1:23-24; John 6:45, 47)
May they understand that the price has been paid, at so great a cost. In Jesus’ name, amen.
