A Prayer for a non-Christian to meet Jesus:
Father, Your Word clearly states that it is not Your will that anyone should die, but that all repent of their sin and live (Ezek. 18:23). Your Word also tells us that You are patient, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance (2 Pet. 3:9). You desire for all men come to a saving knowledge of the truth (1 Tim. 2:3-4).

You loved the world so, that You gave Your one and only Son that whoever believes in You shall not perish but have eternal life (Joh. 3:16). You demonstrated Your love for us in the fact that Christ died for us whilst we were still sinners (Rom. 5:8). With this truth in mind, I pray for the salvation of __________. I pray that You would bless __________ with the gift of eternal life, Father. Just as you raise the dead and give them life, even so, the Son gives life to whom He pleases. I pray that You raise _________ from the dead to life (Joh. 5:21). Father, draw ________ to You, as no one can come to Jesus unless Your Holy Spirit draws them. Those whom You have drawn unto Jesus will be raised up on the last day (Joh. 6:44).

I pray for ________’s release from the power and grip of Satan.

Father, You gave your Spirit to the church to show us how we are guilty of sin. Convict ________ of sin in his/her life (Joh. 16:8). Your Spirit is the Spirit of truth (Joh. 14:17), and love (2 Tim. 1:7). May your Spirit convict ________ of the truth about him/herself and the truth about who you are, and give him/her assurance of Your eternal love. Lord Jesus, You sit at the right hand of the Father to intercede for ________ (Rom. 8:37).

Holy Spirit, I don’t really know how to pray for ________, but would You intercede for him/her with Your immeasurable love? Father, may Your Holy Spirit give new life to ________ (Ezek. 36:26)?

May your Spirit of adoption reveal Your desire to accept him/her as Your child (Rom. 8:15).

Jesus Christ, Lamb who was slain for us before the creation of the world (Rev. 13:8), You came to save sinners. (Luk. 5:32). Please save ________. Through Your death on the cross, You made the sacrifice for his/her sins (Joh. 19:30).
