Recently, I read in a church bulletin the request by parents that others would pray for their children coming to know Jesus Christ. As I read that request, I wonder how much we really do pray for the spiritual growth of others. While we might be praying continually for people to be healed, to get a job, or graduate from school, I'm afraid that others spirituality can be a neglected dimension in prayer.
Is there someone you might know who does not know Jesus, or is having doubts about the faith? Might not your prayers be needed for this individual?
I think we have to realize that faith goes beyond reason. It is the work of the Holy Spirit. As such we do need divine help.
Along with this, we would also recognize that God's power can work beyond what we can imagine. We must never give up on praying for someone's salvation. The Holy Spirit can work beyond what we can conceive.
So, who today needs your prayers for spiritual growth. Why not pray today for them!
