Full Prayer Text
Father, it's written in your word in 1 Timothy 2:1. First of all, that I admonish and urge that petitions, prayers, and intercessions, and thanksgiving be offered on behalf of all men. Therefore, Father, we bring the lost of this world. Every man, woman, and child from here to the furthest corner of the earth before you.
As we intercede, we use our faith believing that thousands this day will have the opportunity to make Jesus their Lord and their Savior. Father, we know that Satan will prevent these from hearing the truth if possible. We are human, but we do not wage war with human plans and methods. We use God's mighty weapons to knock down the devil's strongholds. With these weapons, we break down every proud argument that keeps people from knowing God.
With these weapons, we conquer their rebellious ideas and teach them to obey Christ. We ask the Lord of the harvest to thrust the perfect labors across these lives this day to share the gospel news in a special way so they will listen and understand. We believe that they will not be able to resist the wooing of the Holy Spirit. But you, Father, bring them repentance by your goodness and your love. We confess that we shall see those who have never heard or been told of Jesus understand the gospel. And they shall come out of the snare of the devil who has held them captive.
They shall open their eyes and turn from darkness to light, from the power of Satan to you, God. In the name of Jesus, we declare and decree. Amen.
