Pastor Weekly - 7/22/26

Hello ICC Family!

Every now and then I like to send this list to people to remind them (and myself) to be in constant prayer for all of our friends, family, neighbors, and co-workers that do not have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It is a tool that I have gone back to repeatedly through years of ministry, and I highly encourage you to cut and paste this list and use it to pray for people you love as well…

What Can I Pray for a Non-Christian?

1. That God draws them to Himself. John 6:44 – No one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him.
2. That they seek to know God. Deuteronomy 4:29 – But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you look for him with all your heart and with all your soul.
3. That they believe the Scriptures. 1 Thessalonians 2:13 – And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it actually is, the word of God.
4. That Satan is bound from blinding them to the truth. 2 Corinthians 4:4 – The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.
5. That the Holy Spirit works in them. John 16:8,13 – When the Holy Spirit comes, he will convict the world of guilt in regard to sin and righteousness and judgment. … He will guide you into all truth.
6. That God sends someone to lead them to Christ. Matthew 9:37-38 – Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.  Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
7. That they believe in Christ as Savior. John 1:12 – Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.
8. That they turn from sin. Acts 17:30 – God commands all people everywhere to repent.
9. That they confess Christ as Lord. Romans 10:9 – If you confess with your mouth Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10. That they take root and grow in Christ. Colossians 2:6-7 – So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.

Please come and join us either tonight at 5:45 for discipleship or tomorrow night at 6:30 for young adult discipleship. It is a good time to re-calibrate midweek by spending time in God’s Word as well as with brothers and sisters in Christ.

Blessings to you all!
And know that I am praying for you!
