Evil runs deep. Far deeper than we ever imagined. Time is short to get your affairs in order with the Lord.
It so easy to get wrapped up in all that’s going on around us, and, indeed, there is great need to pray and even to be involved to impact change
But the single most important thing you can do is get your heart right with God. Time is short. I am praying for those who don’t yet know the saving power of Jesus… those who don’t realize they need Him. Those who have it well off.
I’ve said for years that it’s far easier to help someone who knows they’re a wreck than someone who thinks they’re doing fine.
In my year of PRAY, I have committed to praying for people who need to know Jesus… the free grace that only He offers to everyone.
As my year plays out, I’ve created six categories of people for whom to pray regarding finding Gods grace and salvation:
1 myself. (Yes, I know I’m saved, but I want to continually surrender my will to the will of the Father)
2 my circle.. there are many in my immediate circle who do not yet know Gods grace and salvation personally. As people in my circle enter my mind, I record them in my journal and pray that they will find Gods grace
3 my community… those I know less directly but who aren’t very far from me
4 state – those in our state who need to know Jesus, be it government officials, state colleges, state workers, etc.
5 nation – those in our nation who need to know Jesus, our leaders and politicians, national business leaders and influencers…
6 globe – those across the globe who need to know Jesus…
There are, undoubtedly, enough people in those six categories to keep you praying for a long time… i encourage you to pick a category today and start to pray for those in it who don’t yet know Jesus… even if you don’t know them personally.
Prayer changes the battle.
Be blessed today, my friends
