Lesson 8 – Family and Friends
Background
We pray for other people, including Family and Friends, because we know that God wants to save them (John 3:16).
We must pray for their Sinful Habits, Undesirable Behavior Patterns and Negative Influences in their lives.
If deemed necessary, through the Guidance of the Holy Spirit, Pray and Fast for the person.
Do not dictate to God how He should save the person!
Basic Life Questions
It is important to pray for the Holy Spirit to put the "Basic Life Questions" in their hearts. Once people start asking these Basic Life Questions, it usually leads them to Jesus Christ.
The Basic Life Questions are as follows:
What is My Purpose in Life?
Who can I Trust?
Why do Bad Things happen to me?
How can I solve my Problems?
When will I get my Breakthrough?
Where do I go when I Die?
