Why should Christians pray for the lost? 

In this sermon from 1 Timothy 2:1–7, Pastor Blake LaRussa explains why prayer is essential to the mission of the Church and how God uses the prayers of His people to advance the gospel.

This message explores:
Why God commands believers to pray for all people
Why Christians should pray for leaders and nations
God’s desire for all people to be saved
The power of persistent prayer
Jesus Christ as the only mediator between God and man
How prayer fuels evangelism and spiritual revival

If you’ve ever struggled with prayer, felt discouraged praying for unsaved loved ones, or wondered if your prayers matter, this message is for you.
