Earlier this week, it was revealed that perhaps end times man does not heed the warnings in God’s Word because end times man does NOT believe he is in any danger.
End times man mistakenly believes he is in no danger.
Because end times man does not believe the Word of God.
Yes, end times man is truly deceived.
Otherwise, he would KNOW the Word of God is true. In fact, the Word of God is the ONLY truth to be found in a world where the people are encased in lies, falsehoods and deception.
But, all of that aside, WHAT can the believer do to help the lost to believe the Word of God and be saved from perdition?
There are several things the believer can do to help improve the situation of the end times lost.
ONE thing that might be done is INEFFECTIVE.
ANOTHER thing is VERY EFFECTIVE.
The ineffective “remedy“?
Is exactly what the believer is tempted to do–especially since most believers were once part of this wicked world and believed all of the many stories which the world tells those who are trapped in its perversity.
“Try to come up with better arguments to warn the lost. Better arguments will surely convince at least SOME of the lost.”
Deception is a SPIRITUAL condition, not an informational or logical one.
So, while better arguments might tempt the worldly, believers KNOW they are INEFFECTIVE.

What action can be taken which is VERY EFFECTIVE?
Prayer.
AND, there are several prayers believers might EFFECTIVELY use to help the lost.
1- PRAY that more will recognize the true danger that is approaching, its nature, its source and will seek a remedy for that danger.
2- PRAY that more of those living in the end times will become true followers of Jesus Christ.
3- PRAY that more will believe the truth of God’s Word.
4- PRAY that all who believe God’s Word will NOT depend on better arguments to correct the problem. What argument would EVER make an unbeliever believe? What can one say to bestow faith on the faithless?
NOW, there might be some worldly readers who are thinking, “Pray? What kind of action is that? Do something constructive. Wake those people up!”
To all those worldly readers, a few words to the contrary.
“What does one say to wake up the spiritually dead?”
PRAYER is VERY POWERFUL when done by one who is in the kingdom of heaven.
God’s Holy Spirit-assisted PRAYER is a force to be reckoned with.
The true believer has the EXPLOSIVE power of PRAYER at his fingertips.
The believer needs to use it.

DOES the reader sometimes get impatient and want more than just prayer?
DOES the reader realize that focusing on the shortcomings of prayer is the effect that the world’s stories have on him?
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
