Intercession: The Christless Multitudes
The Christless Multitudes Our Father, we ask of Thee a great favour; it is that others whom Christ has redeemed might be brought to know Him. O Lord, we live in the midst of millions that lie still in the wicked one, as if his bosom were their resting place. O, Saviour, be Thou exalted among men. Oh, that Thy name were sweet to them as ointment poured forth! Would God they knew the excellence of a life with Thee, the sweet peace and the brilliant peace with which Thou dost endow the hearts of Thy people! Lord, they will not be convinced, and those that are convinced yet somehow start back; they know that Thou art the Son of God, and yet they do not believe, and even those that believe Thee believe not as they should. O Spirit of God, give faith we pray Thee: work it in the hearts of millions. Bring them to the Saviour's feet, and may this day be a day of the manifestation of Thy holy power in gathering in the wanderers and strengthening those that are with God. O Lord, there are many that are with us, but there are multitudes that are not with God nor with us. The Lord change them and renew their hearts for Jesus' sake. Amen.
