God can Redeem your family

   Right now does it seem hopeless? You have prayed and prayed and put them on your churches prayer list.  You invite them church all the time, do not give up hope for God is able to do all things.  One thing you should make sure that you are doing which to reflect the love of Christ to them, let them see Christ moving in you. Let them see the new creature that Christ has made you into       


31 So they said, "Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved, you and your household." (Acts 16:31)

Christ said it was not his nor the Father will that any should perish

  "The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. "(2 Peter 3:9)  When people are confronted with the reality of God, they will accept Him. Spiritual blindness
is the only reason anyone rejects Jesus Christ.


Praying for those we love, gives God a valid invitation to enter into your family or friends lives, so that  they can come to know  the truth.


We must pray for them day and night that bondage that they are under from the lies of the enemy, his whole intention is to kill and destroy that is why he is describe as roaring lion going to and fro seeking out whom he may destroy.  Do not allow him to have the victory over your family, stand in the gap, continue to be a mirror for the Lord in their lives, cause through your walk with God they may be saved.

But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them. (2 Corinthians 4:3-4)

When we pray for family and friends it may not seem like anything is happening outwardly, but behind the scenes we can be certain hat God is working. We must continue in faith and resist any thoughts of doubt, for we trust not in but in Christ Jesus, who is our deliever. I have 5 kids and each one I must trust and leave in God's to bring them to Salvation. I can pray all day and night but the bottom line is this. Only God can save, we do not bring anyone to God, bring them. While we were yet his enemies he loved us so much that sent his only begotten son down from Glory to suffer greatly for us. So do not be deceived by the devil floor show God is alive and still on the throne.  Trust in him and walk in his light so that the world that is in darkness may come to the light and come to know Christ through you.

So don't you dare give up hope, hold to your faith and trust in...
