CHURCH MEMBERS THAT ARE DEPRAVED
-
Father God, it is sad that among church people there is sin too shameful even to be tolerated by non-believers. LORD, we know you forgive all sins where there is repentance. Your word says there are those that flaunt, rather than shun such behavior. Sin ought to be addressed and rebuked in the church. It should be lamented and not condoned. Your Word is the judge. We pray Your Holy Spirit will convict people that engage in depraved behavior by the exhortation of Your word, and that repentance and a hunger for righteousness will immediately take place so that the spirit of this person may be saved on the day of the Lord.

EXHORTATION
-
But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. -Hebrews 3:13
-
LORD, we pray for the preachers, that Your servants will preach and exhort Your truth with the power of the Spirit, calling that which is good, good, and that which is evil, evil. We pray there will be true repentance and that the old yeast with malice and wickedness will be gotten rid of, and there be a new unleavened batch of sincerity and truth. Christ, our Passover lamb, has been sacrificed for our sins, and the redeemed should be saying so and rejoicing.
-
SEPARATING THE SHEEP FROM THE GOATS
-
Father, You make a distinction between the people of the world that are immoral, greedy, swindlers or idolaters, and those in the church that do the same. Those in the world need to hear the gospel, repent, and get saved. But to be in the church and claim to be a Christian and continue in sexual immorality, greed, idolatry; and to slander, and be a swindler or drunkard, is not permitted by You, and neither do You want for there to be such permissiveness in Your church. You said not to associate with the sexually immoral that claim to be Christians.
-
PRAYING FOR OUR LOST LOVED ONES
-
Father, those that don’t put their eyes on You, but fix their eyes on church people are turned off from going to church when they learn of sexually immoral people in the church and other such lewd behavior. We pray for our lost loved ones that the power of Your Holy Ghost will fall on them and they not be distracted by those in the church that have a bad testimony. Deliver our lost loved ones from stumbling. Usher them into Your kingdom, LORD, for greater is He that is in Your people than he that is in the world. We thank You LORD that the gates of hell will not prevail against Your church and that many souls will be saved when they see Jesus lifted up in the earth. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
