The past couple of weeks you have been hearing about the Master's Light Force. We have been challenged to identify and pray for a lost person within the circles of your life and seek to be a witness to that person over the next three months.

The following is some additional practical help as you pray and seek.

How do I find this person?

1. Look at the Fields: Your mission field is where you live, work and play. Pray that God will show you the lost people around you without Jesus. Where does He want you focus?

2. Look up to God: Begin praying daily for yourself. Pray about attitudes and unconfessed sin that may be hindering your witness. Pray for the unsaved people God has shown you. See "Praying for the Unsaved" below.

3. Look Out: Look out for ways to build a bridge between you and the unsaved person. Invest in their lives. Spend time with them. Genuine friendship enhances the receptivity to a personal gospel witness.

4. Look Sensitively: Look for the work of the Holy Spirit in the life of the unsaved person. Watch for open doors to share your testimony and the Gospel. Make plans for them to attend church with you or an evangelistic service such as the one scheduled for August 26.

Praying for the Unsaved

By faith and based in the power of the shed blood of Christ, pray the following claims:

1. Claim God's love and compassion. Romans 5:8

2. Claim the person by name as one for whom Jesus died. John 3:16

3. Claim the removal of spiritual blindness and tearing down all barriers that hinder belief in Jesus. 2 Corinthians 4:4; 10:4

4. Claim that person's thoughts be brought captive to the obedience of Christ. 2 Corinthians 10:5

5. Claim deliverance from the power and persuasion of Satan that comes from the love of the world and the lust of the flesh. 1 John 2:16

6. Claim a willing witness to share God's love. Matthew 9:38

Be Ready To Go If God Directs You to Be That Witness.

See You Sunday,
