A Prayer for My Unsaved Loved Ones

We all have people we love and care about who are not yet walking with the Lord. They haven’t made a personal confession of Jesus as their Lord and Savior. Maybe they are on the fence or so far away you wonder how they could ever change. But, the Bible says in 1 Timothy 2:4 that it is God’s desire that ALL should be saved. God hasn’t given up on them and neither should you. Jesus tells us in Mark 10:27 that all things are possible with God. Remember that “the prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective” (James 5:16). In Matthew 16:19, Jesus tells us about the “keys to the kingdom of heaven”, that “whatever we bind on earth will be bound in heaven and whatever we loose on earth will be loosed in heaven”. The devil has our loved ones bound and blinded to the truth of the gospel. We have been given the authority and power to bind the devil and loose our loved ones. We can “knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and destroy false arguments” and “ destroy every proud obstacle that keeps people from knowing God” (2 Corinthians 10:4-5). Praise God!

Stand in the authority God has given you, as a born again believer. Pray this prayer over your loved ones who are not yet saved.
