Pray that all men will be saved
Night of Divine Encounter (NODE) 3rd Edition, Day 2 - Pray that all men will be saved- August 29th, 2021. Theme: The Book of Remembrance
God has the capacity to save you
God can save and deliver you from your sins. That is why He sent His Son Jesus Christ to save the world from their sins. 1 Timothy 2:1-4 says, “I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— 2 for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. 3 This is good, and pleases God our Savior, 4 who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth.” If all men were saved, our world would be peaceful and the kingdom of this world would become the kingdom of our God.
God saved Rahab – Joshua 6:25; Matthew 1:5
There is no one too dirty that God can not save. God saved Rahab the harlot and she later became one of the great matriarchs of Jesus Christ. This shows that God is willing to save any one. She was instrumental to the victory that the Israelites had in Jericho. She saved the spies and hundred of years later, the Saviour came through her.
God saved Apostle Paul – Acts 9:1-31
Saul, who later became Paul the Apostle, was persecuting the church before his encounter with God. He later became a mighty vessel in the hands of God. Apostle Paul wrote most of the books in the New Testament and he did greater exploits than all other Apostles. Yet, he was once a persecutor turned preacher of the gospel. If God could save Paul, He could still save and use any one.
Zacchaeus the tax collector had an encounter with Jesus- Luke 19:1-10
Zacchaeus was a tax collector who had enriched himself in dubious ways. Despite his ignoble background, he had an encounter with Jesus Christ. He repented and restituted his illegal wealth and Jesus saved him. If Jesus Christ could save Zacchaeus, then there no one too dirty to be saved
Prayer Points
- Thank God for sending His Son, Jesus Christ, for the salvation of all people. Bless God for kings and those in authority because salvation belongs to them also.
1 Timothy 2:1-4
“I urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all people— 2 for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. 3 This is good, and pleases God our Savior, 4 who wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the truth. “
2. Father, I pray that all men will be saved. We know Jesus Christ had given himself as ransom for all people, so pray that as many are still wallowing in sins today will have an encounter with Jesus and surrender their lives to him
1 Timothy 2:5-6
5 For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all people. This has now been witnessed to at the proper time.
3. Pray to God that He will touch the hearts of all those who are living a wayward lives like Rahab the harlot. They will turn to God and become mighty vessels in His vineyard in Jesus’ name
Joshua 6:25
“But Joshua spared Rahab the prostitute, with her family and all who belonged to her, because she hid the men Joshua had sent as spies to Jericho—and she lives among the Israelites to this day.”
4. Pray for all those who are currently persecuting the church like Apostle Paul before he had an encounter with Jesus. Tell God that such people will see the light and they will realize that it is a hard thing to kick against the pricks. They will turn away from their sins and turn to God. In Jesus’ name we pray
Acts 9:1-5
Then Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest 2 and asked letters from him to the synagogues of Damascus, so that if he found any who were of the Way, whether men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem.
3 As he journeyed he came near Damascus, and suddenly a light shone around him from heaven. 4 Then he fell to the ground, and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?”
5 And he said, “Who are You, Lord?”
Then the Lord said, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. It is hard for you to kick against the goads.”
5. Pray for all men who are like Zacchaeus today in the society, that they will see Jesus, turn away from their sinful ways and turn to God. In Jesus’ name we pray
Luke 19:8-9
8 And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord: Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have taken anything from any man by false accusation, I restore him fourfold.
9 And Jesus said unto him, This day is salvation come to this house, forasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
6. Pray for every member of your family and all loved ones who are yet to be saved. Pray that God will touch their hearts and draw them to Christ
Acts 4:12
Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”
7. Pray for all who have identified with Christ, that they will turn from their wicked ways and turn to God. Cry unto God to forgive our sins and heal our land. In Jesus’ name we pray
2 Chronicles 7:14
“If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.”
8. Pray for nations that are living sins that the gospel will penetrate in such nations, they will repent of their evil ways and turn back to God. Just like the city of Nineveh did, let us pray that the light of the gospel will penetrate in those nations of the world. In Jesus’ name we pray.
Jonah 3:6-10
“When Jonah’s warning reached the king of Nineveh, he rose from his throne, took off his royal robes, covered himself with sackcloth and sat down in the dust. 7 This is the proclamation he issued in Nineveh:
“By the decree of the king and his nobles:
Do not let people or animals, herds or flocks, taste anything; do not let them eat or drink. 8 But let people and animals be covered with sackcloth. Let everyone call urgently on God. Let them give up their evil ways and their violence. 9 Who knows? God may yet relent and with compassion turn from his fierce anger so that we will not perish.”
10 When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he relented and did not bring on them the destruction he had threatened.
