Two Good Reasons To Pray for ALL Men

” I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men”
–1TIMOTHY 2:1

God’s Word instructs the reader to pray for ALL men.

And the prayers for ALL men are not to be some last-minute slapdashery.

The prayers for all men are to include SUPPLICATIONS, PRAYERS, INTERCESSIONS and GIVING OF THANKS.

ALL men means EXACTLY that: ALL men (mankind).

Black, white, yellow, orange;

People the one praying likes; people the one praying does not like;

Men, women, children, youth;

Believers, the lost, the wicked, counterfeits and tares: ALL are deserving of our prayers to God.

There are AT LEAST two good reasons to pray for all men.

1- It is a commandment from Scripture.

It is important to be obedient–particularly in the times in which we live.

2- The prayers of a believer are VERY powerful.

God hears those prayers–and if he hears us, then if we pray according to His will, we will have everything we ask.

“And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us: And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.”
–1JOHN 5:14-15

Believers always pray according to the will of God because the Holy Spirit ensures that the prayers of a believer are according to the will of God.

“Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And he that searcheth the hearts knoweth what is the mind of the Spirit, because he maketh intercession for the saints according to the will of God.”
–Romans 8:26-27

And so: the second good reason to pray for ALL men?

Because the prayers of a believers are powerful: they are heard (and acted upon) by God.

For this reason alone, the believer takes his prayers seriously–and frivolous, obviously-not-in-the-will-of-God pleas simply do not make the cut.

One NEVER knows who might be moved by God’s mercy and be saved because one person praying was obedient to pray for all men by the will of God.

And regardless of the many tales told, it is God’s mercy ALONE which saves the wicked and lost.

NOT the desires of the wicked.

NOT the desires of the family of the wicked.

NOT some “deathbed conversion.”

God’s mercy.

Alone.

“For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. So then it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of God that sheweth mercy.”

And the prayers of a believer act upon that great and marvelous mercy.

DOES the reader pray for ALL men?

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16
