Prayer for best friend of 17 years

[tryphena rose]

I worry for my best friends salvation. She claims she believes in Christ, yet she has no fruits of the spirit. I've known her for since childhood, that she's never been nor claimed to be a born again believer. I'm a former atheist so I know first hand that being a born again believer is such a life changing thing. Anytime I bring up church or anything Bible related, she's quick to change the subject. She's been through many relationships, all of which she's had sexual relations with. Her current relationship, she's jumped into living with this man relatively quickly. She's recently disclosed to me how she never wants to bear children and she's not thinking of marriage anytime soon...my point in disclosing this is to signify how worldly her way of life is and I've come to believe, she doesn't know Christ at all. The Christ she has convinced herself she knows, is not the God of the Bible.

So please, pray for my friend, that she receives the Lord in the fullness of His truth. That she would stop living in the way that she deems right and good in her own eyes, but would turn away from these temporal things and dedicate her life to Jesus Christ.

Will pray. God convict her, and bring her to Himself.

Yes, many people believe in a fictional, mamby pamby, politically correct "Jesus" who really wasn't that interested in teaching you to, well, you know, avoid sin.

No, your friend does not seem even close to being a believer of His since she doesn't even know the basics about Him and is not living life for Him, but contrary to His teachings.

I pray for her salvation.

Father, I pray specifically for this friend, and generally for others like her, that think or say they know You when they really don't. They may be deceived or just lying. Either way, I pray that they will come to a true knowledge of You and receive Christ as LORD and Savior for their own good, and for Your glory. Amen.
