Author Insight

Pray for your enemies

Have you ever prayed for God's mercy for sexual predators? It's a hard thing to do. We could pray more easily for judgment, harsh punishment, and even destruction. But to pray for their salvation after the many little ones they have hurt? That takes remembering how much God has forgiven us. But God tells us no one is beyond his grace.

Book Excerpt

Praying for BIG Things

Predators

L ORD, we bring to you those who brag about themselves with empty, foolish boasting. Those who have twisted sexual desires lure others into sin, even those who have barely escaped from a lifestyle of deception. These boastful ones think they are free, but they end up as the slaves of sin and corruption, for we know we are slaves to whatever controls us. LORD, we pray for those who escape this sinful and corrupt world by coming to faith in our LORD and Savior Jesus Christ.

Help them to get untangled and freed from sin, or they will be worse off than they were before. Lord have mercy on them so they come to a knowledge of the truth and be truly set free.

LORD, in your mercy, hear our prayer.

Based on 2 Peter 2:18-20
