Biblical Prayer Focus:
2 Thessalonians 2:13-14 But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the firstfruits to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth. To this he called you through our gospel, so that you may obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Give thanks for the people you know who have recently trusted Christ as Savior. Ask the Lord to set them apart to holiness through the work of the Holy Spirit. Plead for them to have a strong belief in the truth of the Gospel. Pray, as well, for those who have not yet trusted Jesus, that God would open their eyes to their need.
