My friend knows about God but i dont think she actually knows God. She grew up in a Christian home and she prays to God all the time. Shes had alot of prayers answered too. I just dont think she is saved. Im kind of worried about her and I was wondering if yall could pray for her or give me advice on what i should do. She also gets depressed so bad sometimes. She gets so bad for a while and then she prays and she will get better. When she is down though, she cant find joy at all.

Hello Jessica

What makes you feel she isn't born again? It is so easy to look at others but not see their heart, a tree will always be revealed by its fruits.

What you are experiencing is very common, many of us go through this, it is because we loved them so much. I had this issue with my wife, it is always a loved one and the devil knows this.

The simple answer is accept her as she is, love her at all times, pray in faith for her salvation, pray for her to hunger and thirst for the truth in The Word. Always pray in Jesus Name. Does you friend pray to God in Jesus Name?

Lift her in prayer to our Father, in love, in prayer for her salvation, leave your prayers with Jesus they will be interceded for you, leave it to the Power of God and the Holy Spirit. God loves prayers for salvation, He sees the true warmth in our hearts, he answers fervent believing prayer, just 'Trust in the Lord and lean not on your own understanding'. Love your friend and watch the Spirit work in her heart.

We come together in prayer, in agreement, in Jesus Name. Amen.

Peace be with you.

It sounds like your pretty close to her Jessca, Why don't you, when the time is right, invite her to pray the sinners prayer with you, Lead her to Christ. The best gift you could give her. Bless you both.

Yes, I committed first, then Helen. we were about to split up and Helen didn't know which way to turn, she knew that to leave me would devastate our children, her friends were telling her to leave me, and the only way she could see that might save our marriage, was to give Jesus a go and he, bless him has totally renewed our relationship and over forty years on we have a love people dream of. bless you.

God's speed, yes.

Just lift in prayer, in Jesus Name, leave it to Him, Trust He will answer prayer, He will, Rejoice and give thanks, tell the Lord you believe and Trust in Him. Hearts have to change, this is the holy Spirits speciality.

At times you will probably doubt, the devil is at work, rebuke the devil, trust in the Lord always, dont forget your faith could be tested also, that is how we grow in faith.

Jesus loves you I do too.

Never give up praying Jessca, but what you pray for 'believe', refuse to let the enemy steal it. People are not called prayer warriors lightly. bless you. Oh and it may take a while but hang on in there.

It takes as long as God deems it necessary Jessca, Just bring her up in your daily prayers and if you get the opportunity encourage her to give her life to Jesus. If she is on your heart it's because God put her there. bless you, she's got a good friend in you.

I have done Jessca and I will, but you must pray too and stand on your prayer and don't let go, just believe and it will be given to you. The Lord is calling you to grow Jessca. bless you.
