A Prayer for Unbelievers - Your Daily Prayer

Описание: 2 Peter 3:9-10 says, “The Lord does not delay his promise, as some understand delay, but is patient with you, not wanting any to perish but all to come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief; on that day the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, the elements will burn and be dissolved, and the earth and the works on it will be disclosed.”

I love how these verses share the heart of God. He does not delay His promise. He is so patient. He does not want anyone to perish but everyone to come to repentance. This is the heart of the Creator, this is the message of the Father’s love. Often people try to separate God the Father from Jesus as difficult and almost mean in judgment. However, it is very clear throughout the Bible that it is God who loves the world, and He made a plan of redemption. However, not everyone accepts Him, and there is a lot of evil in the world, and like a good parent, He has to deal with it.

These verses remind us of the sense of urgency we should have because He will come unexpectedly. As we are surrounded by loved ones, co-workers, and strangers who do not have Jesus in their hearts, may this be a reminder for us to pray boldly for them and to speak up and share the gospel in authentic ways while we have the time. One of the most powerful ways we can minister to them is by prayer. Let’s take time today to lift up those we are burdened for to know Christ.
