7-DAY EVANGELISM PRAYER FOCUS
The urgency to win the world for Jesus Christ is more of a
reality than ever.
We need to
seek the Lord for direction, reevaluate our priorities, and examine
ourselves to see if we are in the faith in every area of our lives,
including soul winning.
Set
aside one week to fast and pray for the heart of God regarding obeying the
Great Commission.
Day 1:
Read Luke
15. Ask God to give you the same passion for souls that He has. Be truthful
with Him regarding your present passion level and tell Him you want to be
more like Him in every way, including soul winning.
Day 2:
Read John
4. Ask God for an unprecedented harvest of souls in your sphere of
influence. Praise Him that you have the honor of being used by Him to bring
souls into the Kingdom.
Day 3:
Read 1
Corinthians 15. Ask God to cross your path with other Christians who have a
fire for evangelism. Thank Him for opportunities to fellowship and minister
with people who will help keep your desire to reach the lost stirred-up.
Day 4:
Read
Ephesians 5. Ask God to help you live purposefully and to keep soul winning
your #1 priority. Thank Him for reminding you that the Great Commission
needs to be your first concern, and when the cares of this world get in the
way, He will help you get your priorities back in order.
Day 5:
Read
Revelation 20 and 21. Ask God to give you a deeper revelation of Heaven and
Hell. Praise Him that as you meditate on the fate of the ungodly, you will
have a renewed motivation and urgency to win the lost.
Day 6:
Read Psalm
2. Ask the Lord for your inheritance—the salvation of your loved ones,
city, nation, and world. Thank Him for the friends, family, etc. who have
already come to know the Lord.
Day 7:
Read Acts
1 and 2. Ask the Lord to do in you what He did in Peter—a man that could
not even tell a little girl that he knew Jesus. God transformed Peter, by
the power of the Holy Spirit, into a fearless, bold soldier of Christ who
saw 3,000 saved at Pentecost.
