Last night I agonised in prayer for a myLot friend who calls himself an atheist. If you believe God answers prayer, please join me in praying that the Lord will open his spiritual eyes and allow him to see the truths of God's Word and come to know, love and serve the Lord Jesus Christ.
I believe God. Nothing is too hard for Him. He has chosen to work in answer to the prayers of His people. Please believe with me and pray for my myLot friend.

I'll join you in praying for everyone who finds it hard to the point of impossible to believe that only the Lord Jesus Christ who can save and who finds no true purpose for their lives yet. It is by grace alone that we believe in Him now, and maybe someone else also prayed for us back then. Let's 'pay' it forward...

Lovely thoughts. Yes, I know people prayed for me when I had no thought of God.
Our loving heavenly Father CHOOSES to work in answer to the prayers of His people. I believe He is doing a work in this person's life and we WILL see results.
Thank you.

Thank you, Isenia. I believe God IS working in this person's life. He has chosen to work through His people and to work in response to the faith of His people.
My God is a great God and can break down all barriers and give enlightenment and understanding to a stubborn mind.
Thank you for praying with me for this man and his wife. I know God will continue to bless you and use you to bless others.

I pray for the lost. Remember the best way to invite someone to Christ is to be kind and without judgement. Stranger things have happened then someone who refuses to Believe comming to the Lord. Thankyou for bringing to our attention another lost soul who needs God Bless and keep up your leadership for the Lord.

Thanks Andrea.
I know God loves this person and wants to reach him with His love. Just pray that somehow, somewhere, God will bring this about.

Hi Cloudwatcher, I will pray along with you. Since you're a Christian, can you please look at my post for advice from other Born Again Christians. I'd thank you for your opinions and/or advice as well.

Hi Berlynn. I have just posted a response to your discussion. I hope it helps. Please feel free to ask if there is more I can do.
Thank you for praying for my friend. Sometimes I feel really helpless, but I know that is NEVER the case. My God is real and He cares even more than I do about my friend. He is in God's hands.

I pray that there will be many Christians at myLot will pray like you. We should pray for 'the Christians' who never knew about their faith, for the atheists, free thinkers, Moslems, Buddhists, Hindus, and many religions...
May God works according to His will and raises his chosen people...

I will join you in praying for this person. It troubles me also that there are a great deal of people who don't believe. Sometimes I don't know what to say. But I believe that God knows our hearts and if we can't speak He still knows our desires. I pray that this person will find the love of the Lord and get saved and then testify what God has done for him/her. I believe God answers prayers and maybe all we can do is pray for this person because forcing God on him will just push him away.

We cannot force God on anyone. Everyone has a free will, but I believe God has really laid this person on my heart and I believe He WILL answer prayer.
Thank you for your concern and for joining with me.
