Please pray for my son Andrew. He’s 20 yrs old. In his teens he used to know and serve the Lord. Now he’s backsliding, he’s on anxiety medication and in a gang 😭💔 that’s my baby, my first born son. He grew up in the Lord’s way. Now the enemy is trying to take his life. I’m so concerned for his soul and where he will spend eternity. Please pray for his complete deliverance. Please pray for his salvation and that like the prodigal son, Andrew too may come back to his Heavenly Father 🙏
🙏💖

I hope you find support for yourself on how to mange with family members who are suffering from addiction.
The support i got from a local church Open Homes Ministry was life changing to me. Both in understanding how to support my addicted family members without enabling them. And, how to avoid taking their behavior personally.

Amen Amen. This is a powerful reminder to not give up on those we love. Christ never gave up on us even unto death.

I agree he didn't give up but sometimes it's just hard to keep the faith because they say things like "I'll never change"😭😭
Pray for my son Bryce . He is no longer a Christian and does not believe anymore . He is lost. He is 23 yes old .Please pray he will open his heart to Jesus again .

My Son and Daughter as well. I’m praying for your children. Please pray for mine. Thank you
I prayed for Bryce ❤
My daughter as well. She's 19. Praying for all children listed here.
ive prayed for my sister a Buddhist and brother an atheist for many years but not regularly...off and on..more now than before ....I have asked the Lord to help me pray for them every day as I do for my children who are all saved but still need a lot of prayer. Maybe my sister and brother haven't come to Jesus because I haven't prayed consistently such as every day or sometimes not even once a week. But as the time appoaches of Christ's return I feel a stronger nudge from the Lord to pray for them more regularly as well as other relatives . I am thankful my husband was a believer and now in Heaven and my 3 children are..but not most of my relatives nor my siblings yet
Kathy, maybe it's better to pray for your siblings to avoid superstitious people..
I love this and feel a kindred spirit with you. I would like to encourage you in one thing - you said maybe they have not come to Jesus yet because your prayers have not been consistent. Sweet Sister, do not let the enemy put that burden on you. Yes, pray for them! But, ultimately, we cannot make that decision for them. Their salvation is in God's hands. The Lord knows our weakness and our faithlessness. But He is ever faithful.
I really needed this today! The Holy Spirit led me here!
I second that motion!!!
Please pray for my brother Markus, so he would turn back to Christ.
Wow, 48 years. I'm on 25 and feel better!
Many professing Christians think they are saved. I went to church for 50 years but I was Lukewarm. Then I found this YT channel called: BIBLE STUDY 101
Please pray for my 24 y/o son, Brandon. He needs salvation.
Praying for Brandon
My daughter and son come back to Faith 🌿🙏 My family members, My work for Lord here in Twin falls Idaho 😇❤️ many people need Lord messiah here 🙏🙏🙏
Please pray for a friend called Yannick. Darkness has his grip on him. Alcohol Depression and a manipulating ex girlfriend. He needs Jesus
Praying for Yannick
Praying now. Any update?
Praying for Yannick. Please pray for my friend, Jason.
Praying for Yannick!
No, he needs actual help, have you done anything to actually help him?
I also have family members that need to be saved please keep them in your prayers . They all know the truth and have walked away.
I have prayed for them, Mary. ❤️
@@lisaforte1575 Thank you I greatly appreciate that. I will pray for you and your family.
I spend all my energy praying for my granddaughter's nephew sister cousins (my daughter got baptized last year after prayers)
Please pray for my buddhist neighbor's salvation and for her broken family. Her daughter has been taken from her and she has a difficult time in a foreign country which language she cannot speak.
Praying for my neighbors. I ask them to read John Chapter 14. I bought one neighbor a bible
Praying for your neighbors✝️🙏💒🛐
So encouraging. I have been praying many years for loved ones. I will keep praying 🙏🏼
Me too.
If you really loved them you would accept them for who they are, it doesn't matter if they share different beliefs, they are still human
Logical Atheist, we do love them and for us who love our Lord Jesus Christ, there is nothing better than to LOVE and LIVE in Jesus Christ! It’s because we love them and accept them we pray for them! we do not pray for everyone, we pray for specific people who the Lord lays on our heart to pray for! Even Jesus prayed in John 17:7: “ I ( Jesus) pray for them. I do not pray for the world, but for those whom you have given to me, for they are yours….” I can pray for you!!❤️❤️🙏
My daughter is broken. Please all you have to do when you pray is say her name Tabetha Ervin. Thank you
I have prayed 🙏
Lord let your Holy Spirit hover over each family member and friend that has ask for prayer soften their heart. Remove the blindness and open the eyes of their heart to see their need of Jesus. Arrange the circumstances of their life that will cause them to see Jesus is their only hope. Give each person praying of seeing their live ones receive Jesus. Don't take them till they yield and surrender their will to Jesus. Only Jesus saves. Be glorified in their lives and strengthen and encourage the persons praying for lost love ones. Their are that lost sheep. Bring them home. All glory. Honour and praise will go to you. In His Holy Name. We pray
Amen
🙏🙏🙏

Please pray for my friend Krystal! Help her surrender to the lord and overcome addiction!
Pastor Strobel, Please expand your ministry to continue to support families of the unsaved. 2020 is especially a time when a sense of urgency has heightened for our lost loved one's souls. Thank you.
AMEN!!!! I agree with you!!!!
I have quite a big handful of unsaved family on both sides. Right now my heart has been aching for my husband. I became born again while with my husband and I've been praying hard. When Lee said no matter how far gone a person seems there's always hope that hit home. I realize i haven't been praying enough because I've been letting my logic blind my faith. Please pray for him and my whole family I see l must pray daily to grow my faith and see changes.
Amen ❗ WATCH PASTORS PERSPECTIVE FEBRUARY 23, 2021❕ YOU WILL SMILE 😀❤️💜💙

. Please pray for our adopted son Nathan, and adopted daughter, Karissa . They were both such strong believers as children and have walked away from Christianity.. Our son has dabbled in Satanism and our daughter just doesn't "believe in that stuff" anymore. Our hearts ache and God's heart also must be sad. Pray they both come back to faith in Jesus and be stronger than ever and be witnesses to Jesus as St. Paul was.
Please please pray for my father, my boyfriend, and my brother. They once knew the Lord and they are now lost. I have faith the Lord will bring them back i just want them accept Him in their hearts.
Hi, please come into agreement with me, for my family’s Salvation: my husband Billy, my sons Nicolas and Jean-Philipe, my daughter-in-law Lana and my grandchildren… I am the sole believer in my family so far and I continuously pray and believe the Lord will save them…. Please pray that they would see their need for a Saviour, repent and be saved… and that I may display a godly character and be salt and light to them, so that they may actually want what I have…
Praying the same for every person on this thread who has a prayer request on this thread for unsaved loved ones… Be very strong and courageous, Lots of love and prayers to all… ❤️🔥🙏🏼🕊️

Can't wait for Focus on the Singles to come out
I just watched a testimonial about one woman’s prayers. She prayed for years until she changed her prayer and began to open her mind up to pray specific prayers! The person she was praying for years got saved 2 weeks after those specific prayers! She shifted from superficial general prayers to actually binding devils and rebellion and specifically targeted prayers!
Thank you, I needed to hear this! 😭
thank you rrealy eye opening keep preaching reaching people that don't know or want to know Jesus blessings
Praying for my daughter that moved to the Philippines with a false religion and lost custody and visitation rights with her 3 year old baby. Praying she will return back to Jesus Christ as her Lord and saviour. That the Lord is taking the blinders off of her eyes. I know he is working everything out. From the things she tells me, Convinces me without a shadow of a doubt. That Jesus Christ is the one and only true saviour. Thank you Jesus!
*Focus on the Family* Amesome video....Love it💖💖💖💖💖💖
Many professing Christians think they are saved. I went to church for 50 years but I was Lukewarm. Then I found this YT channel called: BIBLE STUDY 101
(Matthew 25:35) For I was hungry you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger you invited me in,, (refugees migrants homeless immigrants) I needed clothes you clothed me, I was sick you looked after me, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine you did for me 🙏
I pray for my children, grandchildren, & their in laws but I also pray for people I don't know, celebrities, politicians & the sort. I've wondered if some of them have never had anyone to pray for them. There have been times when I've heard of someone dying the day after I prayed for them, worse tho is when someone came into my mind & I didn't pray for them. (I had thought of Robin Williams the day before he died but I forgot to pray for him.) I always pray for whoever needs help when I hear an ambulance, police, fire trucks etc. because the Lord knows their needs. You never know who might be in need of a "come to Jesus" moment right then. I love to think of Jesus jerking them out of Satan's hands even at the last moment.
Hope and🙏ing
Thank you so much for sharing this sermon and video!!! I really needed to hear this today!!!
