For New Believers
Holy Spirit,
We rejoice along with the angels in heaven every time a soul is snatched from the darkness of unbelief and brought into the wonderful light of salvation through faith in Jesus! Thank you for the gift of faith that you plant in the hearts of believers through your Word. Continue to nurture the faith of new believers so that the roots of their faith run deep. We know how tirelessly the evil one schemes to attack new believers and cause as much damage as possible to uproot their faith. Protect them with the armor of God. Lead them into the safety and solidarity of a local church that upholds your Word as its greatest treasure and faithfully adheres to it. Surround new Christians with mature brothers and sisters in Christ who seek to actively disciple them. Mature them in their faith so that they are equipped to glorify you in all that they do, and include them in the church’s disciple-making mission so that they can experience first-hand the joy of being used by you to be a part of seeing other souls saved.
In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
