Hello all,

I have known a Christian married woman for almost 30 years now, and all of that time (and more!) she has been praying for the salvation of her unsaved spouse. (He not only didn't believe in Jesus, but he actually became angry any time that Jesus [or Christianity] was mentioned in his house!)

This woman and her husband are getting older now, and he has been quite ill for some time now. But just recently, a pastor friend of this woman's came to their house and witnessed to the unbelieving husband. And God opened up a door!! The unbelieving husband said the sinner's prayer, and he accepted the Lord Jesus as his personal Lord and Savior! (I've been praying for his salvation too, and it seems like a miracle to me!)

Have you been praying for an unsaved spouse (or for another unsaved loved one) for many, many years now? Well, it's God's will that all men (and all women) would be saved! (Please see: 1 Timothy 2:3-4)

So, please don't give up on praying for the salvation of your loved ones! (And while you're at it, please remember to praise God [in advance] for their salvation!) This will take a lot of faith on your part, but I believe that your continued faith in God's promises (see above) pleases God.

And may God bless you - each and every day,

Lar

Hi Betty,

Thanks so much for your prayers for my wife and I. I've been thinking of you (and praying for you) too. .. [Smile]
