There are many people whom we all know that are spiritually lost. If they die or the Lord Jesus comes back tomorrow, they won’t be going to heaven. The reason is that they don’t believe the gospel and have not trusted in Jesus Christ as their savior. The devil and his demons have blinded their eyes.

2 Corinthians 4:4: the god of this world (satan) has blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.

The most important thing we can do is pray for them repeatedly that God will supernaturally work in their heart.

Romans 10:1 Brethren, my heart’s desire and my prayer to God for them is for their salvation.

Acts 16:14 a woman named Lydia. . . was listening; and the Lord opened her heart to respond to the things spoken by Paul.

This next week is Jefferson Baptist’s five days of prayer. We will pray daily from 5:00 to 10:00 am and pm. We will have dinner at 6:00 pm each evening, along with the praying. We will be praying for our Easter services and the names that hundreds of people have written on prayer cards to be prayed for so that when they invite them to one of the Easter services, they will respond and come.

The Easter services will be a fantastic concert with the gospel being presented, with a great sense of God’s presence because of all the prayer offered during the “five days.”

Our most important responsibility on earth in our lifetime is influencing as many people as possible to trust Christ as their savior. God gave us that responsibility, and with it, He gave us the power of prayer, and the most powerful form of prayer is the agreeing prayer of a unified and loving church family.
