““Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved – you and your household.”
”
God desires that everyone receives salvation according to Ezekiel 18:23 “Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign LORD. Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live?” As intercessors we must stand before God to plead the case of those in need of salvation. The devil does not want to let go those he is holding captive but we have the power in the word of God to declare their freedom in Jesus name. The love of God for mankind is everlasting far beyond anything we could ever imagine according to Jeremiah 31:3 “The LORD appeared to us in the past, saying: "I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have drawn you with loving devotion”
Acts 2:38 “Peter replied, “Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.” Stand on this word and declare that in every home where salvation is needed, the grace of God for repentance will fall over them and they will ask God for forgiveness.
Acts 4:12 “Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.” Some may trust in family names, fashion, money, homes, and cars. None of these names can bring salvation. There is only one name and is the name-JESUS. Pray for a revelation of the name of Jesus in the hearts of those who need salvation. For there is only one way to God according to John 14:6 “Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
Romans 10:9-10 “9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.” Pray that God will break every stony heart and create an atmosphere of believing Jesus in their heart and confusing that Jesus is Lord.
Jeremiah 31:19 “After I strayed, I repented; after I came to understand, I beat my breast. I was ashamed and humiliated because I bore the disgrace of my youth.” Pray that everyone in need of salvation will come to the place of self-reflection and cry out to God for salvation.
John 6:44 “No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws them, and I will raise them up at the last day.” Pray that God will draw those needing salvation to Jesus- a place of repentance.
Zechariah 1:3 “Therefore say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord of hosts, “Return to Me,” declares the Lord of hosts, “that I may return to you,” says the Lord of hosts.” Pray for a heart to return to God so that God may return to them.
Hebrew 9:14 “How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God!” Pray that the blood of Jesus will flow through the heart, mind, soul, and spirit of all those needing salvation.
