Personal Prayer
Praise God verbally, saying, “Jesus is Lord” (Rom. 10:9). Thank Christ for fulfilling God’s law for you and granting you his righteousness (10:4). Confess any attempts you are still making to earn righteousness and favor with God. Commit to a lifestyle of confessing the lordship of Jesus. Ask God to remove any lingering distrust (10:11).
For Your Family and Friends
Pray one by one for every member of your household to call on the name of the Lord and be saved (10:13). Ask God to help them believe through your witness.
For the Church
Pray for joyful and obedient involvement in the outreach ministries sponsored by your local church and your denomination. Ask God to give real wisdom to those involved in planning strategies to enable God’s people to be more and more effective.
For the Kingdom
Pray for God’s kingdom to come and his will to be done on your part of the earth as it is in heaven. Ask that the lordship of Christ, which we confess verbally, will be applied in just and righteous actions.
For People to Know Jesus
Thank God for those specially gifted and dedicated to bringing the good news (10:15). Ask him to use you in going and sending others (10:14).
