A Simple and Effective Way to Pray for Difficult People
This is an incomplete list of things our family has prayed:
- come to the knowledge of their need for Him
- grow closer in a relationship with Him
- to turn from sin and walk uprightly
- to hunger for the Word and have a craving to spend time with Him
- to give them knowledge of how to live better for Him
- to give them wisdom
- to enable them to put on the full armor of God each day, walk in righteousness, and be led by the Holy Spirit, and stand strong against the attacks of the enemy
- may God's truth rule in their hearts, be in the forefront of their minds, and be on their lips
- to have insight to my position and for God to give me insight to theirs and to increase our love for Him and each other so through understanding and love the relationship can be healed for His glory
- that they will do His will with surrender, humility, and all of their strength with pure motives
- reveal hidden sin and pull the weeds in their heart
- to die to self and live for Christ
- to provide for all of their needs and to rain down blessings on them
- to help us work more effectively together despite our differences
- to give them a bold witness and expanding testimony for Him
- to heal their sickness and bless them with good health
- to send godly people to walk beside them in life
- to strengthen and protect their marriage and help them have fun times together as a couple
- that things will go well with their children and grandchildren
- that forgiveness, healing, understanding, peace, unity, and genuine love between us can be reached so we can fight the real enemy that we share Ephesians 6:12
- that they will learn from this experience and do better in the next situation so, if they call themselves Christians, they do not do more damage to God's name
- that they will walk in their spirit instead of in their natural sinful flesh
- that they are more grieved and focused on their sin than they are upset by the sins of others
- that God will equip them to speak His love and His truth into their loved ones lives
- to have fun, relaxing times with their family and loved ones
- that they will be careful with their testimony, bold in their witness, and unashamed of the gospel
- and so on
