Today’s Proverb:<\/strong>
\nOpen your mouth for the speechless, In the cause of all who are appointed to die,<\/em> Proverbs 31:8<\/p>\n

Today’s Thought:
\n<\/u><\/strong>If someone is appointed to die, he has no voice, his sentence is given and will be carried out,<\/p>\n

…unless…<\/p>\n

Someone comes and speaks for him to plead his case.<\/p>\n

We need to pray for those who need to be saved.
\nWe need to pray that their minds and eyes will be opened to the truth, so they will be given the chance to choose between life and death.
\nWe need to pray that Jesus will come into their life to save them and set them free before it is too late.<\/p>\n

Today’s Action:
\n<\/strong>Today I will:
\nResolve to pray this prayer daily for my loved ones, friends, neighbors or anyone I know who is un-saved.<\/p>\n

Today’s Prayer:<\/p>\n

I pray for___________who needs to be saved.<\/p>\n

I pray that_________’s mind and eyes will be opened to the truth.<\/p>\n

I pray that____________will be given the wisdom to choose between spiritual life and death.<\/p>\n

I pray that Jesus will come into___________’s life to save and set____________free before it is too late.<\/p>\n

Thank You God, for hearing my prayer and for what You will do in ________’s life. In Jesus name I pray.<\/p>\n

The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.<\/em>
\n2Peter 3:9<\/p>\n

This is the last devotional in the “Proverb A Day” series.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow begins “Showers of Blessings” a 30-day Devotional on the Blessings of God.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
