Urgent-Friend's Salvation

I'm requesting prayer again for the salvation of my friend "C." He is involved with a woman who is immoral, extremely immodest, woman & some immoral friends. He has let these people influence him to to do things that he knows aren't right. I've been praying for him for years & tried to witness to him when I had more direct contact with him. I have very limited contact now. I've always had a burden for his soul, but the past few months, that burden has become almost unbearable. I've been fasting for him, but have felt an uneasiness in my spirit. The past few weeks, I've felt that the only hope is for "C" to be separated from the people who are such a bad influence, including the girlfriend. I've been under such a strong burden, that I've been trying to get people to agree with me in prayer, but for some reason some people are resisting. I've been told that I'm selfish for praying that God would separate "C" from the people who are influencing him to live an immoral lifestyle & using him b/c they claim I just don't want "C" to have any friends. I also had one person tell me that "C's" salvation was none of my business & I. Should leave praying for his salvation up to him & his friends. Both of these people were supposedly Christians so I don't understand their thinking. Maybe I misunderstood them, but I'm just upset about the whole situation & the uneasiness in my spirit is hard for me to bear alone. Thank you for praying.

Proverbs 3:6 NIV
in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.

Matthew 7:7-8
7 "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.

Remain faithful, Keep on praying the Lord will hear and answer. This is in my prayers and thoughts. God Bless You and "C".

RE: Urgent-Friend's Salvation

Heavenly Father I know how it feels to pray for someone's salvation, the heavy burden that one carries, the thought of stopping brings guilt, but you Lord never give up on us - so how can we give up. You want us to intercede for one another, to pray without ceasing and to love one another. Lord you gave your one and only son, so that we would not perish but have eternal life John 3:16. Jesus became the sacrifice so that we through your grace would inherit salvation. Your word states that Jesus lives to intercede for us Hebrews 7:25. I pray that you would send your Holy Spirit to C, draw him close to you, bring to light everything that he is doing, bring him to repentance and enable him to believe in you. You are the only one that can create this situation and bring and end to the destruction in C's life. I pray that you will quickly rescue C from the dominion of darkness so that you may be glorified and magnified in his life and that you may bring peace of mind to this sister in Christ. In your son Jesus Christ name, we pray, AMEN.
