Pray for those who have heard the gospel over this past month to be born again into the kingdom of God. Let us pray that they will believe on the Lord Jesus and be saved (John 3:3; 1 Peter 1:3; Acts 16:30-31).
As we come to the end of January, 2022, let us give thanks to the Lord for all the mighty work of salvation he has worked in the hearts of so many people, both in Japan and across the globe. How great the rejoicing in heaven must have been this month sinners have come to repentance! (Luke 15:7).
And now let us come and pray that those Japanese who heard the gospel this past month, whether through a sermon, a family member or friend's words, the Bible itself, etc, who have not yet put their faith in Christ...let us pray for these Japanese men, women, and children to repent and believe the gospel (Mark 1:15).
Please pray that God will remove their hearts of stone and give them hearts of flesh (Ezekiel 11:19). Pray that they will see their need to be forgiven for their sin and saved from the wrath of God (Romans 1:18; Romans 6:23). And, seeing their need for forgiveness, please pray that they will not run from but run to Christ, that they may be saved (Acts 16:30-31). In Jesus's Name may we ask all these things.
Also, to each of you, thank you for faithfully praying for the Japanese people week in and week out. Your labor of love is not in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58).
