SCRIPTURE: John 6:44-47 - VV.44, 47 in Amplified: "No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him [giving him the desire to come to Me]; and I will raise him up [from the dead] on the last day... I assure you and most solemnly say to you, he who believes [in Me as Savior—whoever adheres to, trusts in, relies on, and has faith in Me—already] has eternal life [that is, now possesses it].
PRAYER FOCUS: That The Father would draw the people of our neighborhood to Jesus
2 Cor. 4:4 (AMPC) - "For the god of this world has blinded the unbelievers’ minds [that they should not discern the truth], preventing them from seeing the illuminating light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ (the Messiah), Who is the Image and Likeness of God." Let us pray that the blinders of the enemy would fall from the eyes of the hearts of the unbelieving in our neighborhood, like scales, so that they feel the draw of Him who calls to them and wants to have a relationship with them like He does us. That they wouldn't be drawn to a particular building, but that they would be drawn to the permanent, everlasting hope that is Jesus Christ. Bless us indeed with new people to add to our sheepfold and increase Your territory by drawing new people, or even people who have left, to us and change their hearts anew.
