To stand in the midst - a prose

Would you stand in the midst

Interceding for your unbelieving friend

That person in the family, who so clearly

Have rejected and avoided the Way.

Have you felt burdened for them?

And therefore pleaded for their sake 

That boy whom you lost track, who slowly faded away

That someone who so obviously went away

Who submerges himself in sin, not knowing his plight.

Who indulges in unforgiveness, adamant to sin

Would you stand up for him. For her.

Holding their hands upto the throne of grace

Pleading to the Father to show mercy

Asking to deliver them from the clutches of the enemy.

Would you be that one person, who would pray for them?

Intercede on their behalf. Speaks for them unto the Father

Would you part take in this ministry alongside Jesus

May be you are unable to do something proactively.

But would you pray

2Kings:3:14 I wouldn't even bother with you except for my respect for King Jehoshaphath of Judah.
