So I have my best friend, he is an atheist. He lost his faith because of how unfair life is, he said if there is a God why would he let him and his family go through all they did and if there is a God then he doesn't want to serve one who allows that. True his life was rough but ppl like me have gone through so much more and yet fell in love with God. I had hoped that my life would have been a perfect example to him that even in the harshest of lives one can find God but it doesn't. He hates that I am a Christian, we live together but he said eventually if I refuse to give up my faith he may not want to be around me. He was hurt by Christians in the past, he saw how so many of them were hypocrites, were prideful and honestly the exact opposite of what we said we stood for and many of you have seen this in this forum alone.

He has never truly known God, never had that intimate and loving bond with him and so his faith could not stand. He won't listen to what I have to say or anyone for that matter about this so i have been praying for God to do something because he can do anything. I know that it only takes a spark to make the fire burn and just as that fire burns inside me-that love that passion and hunger for God that knows no bounds and no limits I desire so much to see that fire inside him. I can't help but feel we are running out of time, I don't know if its the rapture the tribulation or death only that time is scarce and no i am not prophecying its just something I feel inside. So I am basically at my wits end here, if God will not answer to me and if he won't answer to his mom who has been praying with me perhaps he will answer to some of you. He would make a super Christian, I mean he has the most amazing qualities and gifts I have ever seen. I have never met someone so strong before, he has great wisdom and insight patience and kindness on the deepest levels and he isn't even saved yet.

So please if I can get some help here, some prayer warriors and maybe even some fasters because this is very urgent

God is not a respecter of persons... and if HE answers us, that is because of JESUS who is in us, not for our sake... :)
Thank you Jesus and may You increase your Kingdom everywhere. amen

Dear Father In Heaven

Please be with Blain and his roommates. I pray that you will soften the roommates heart and that You would touch him and whisper in his ears and heart that he would allow Your Holy Spirit into his life. Help him to find You Father and bless Blain and help him to be a loving example like Jesus to be a mighty witness to the truth of Your love and Word. I pray in Jesus Name Amen....

Have missed you son...Blond mom

Blain - glad to see that you are beginning a new life. I would just enjoy what you and your roommate have in common, and let the rest go. Your prayers have been heard, and the Holy Spirit has a timing.

One reason that people come up with all those judgmental questions about "why does God allow this and that?" is that they have made judgments early in life about their parents (most usually their fathers who have not been there for them either physically or emotionally). I could be wrong about this boy, but I would guess that he has a father or mother he needs to forgive and talk to someone about his early hurts.

You cannot defend God to him. The problem is not a mental one. It is a matter of a heart that projects its feelings toward a father or mother unto God. Pray for him to see the Lord as loving and gentle and accepting. Once he is a Christian, healing and forgiveness can begin.

You were exceptionally blessed to not have this a block in your view of God.

Praying for you. next time he mentions something, could you talk to him about why you believe in God? There is also an argument out there called the moral argument for God, it may help get him thinking more about this subject.

Blain, can you confirm whether he is not saved, or has lost his faith? No this is not an osas invitation (and anyone who goes in that direction should think twice in this thread) but there is a difference between someone who never had faith and someone who has lost it.

he went to church he prayed he read the bible but he never made an actual relationship with God, without that actual relationship I don't think he was ever saved to begin with.

Father, I pray for Blain's room mate, that he will come to realise how very real you are. I pray that you draw him you Yourself and soften his heart. Allow him to see the peace that surrounds Blain and realise that this peace comes about from knowing you and that he will want that for himself. Amen

Lord, I pray for this prodigal son to truly know Your true character as a loving Father. I pray You would show up in this situation and appear to this friend in a real way so that he would know Your power to save and deliver. Thank You for hearing our prayers. In Christ's Name, Amen.

ty everyone for praying for my friend, his name is **edited** and he is a very close friend. see when I moved out of my moms grasp which of course was such a huge ordeal that the cops had to get involved I was adopted into his family. his mom is my old highschool teacher, she and I were very close even then and I actually saved her life once from a rampaging student. for years I have been going over to their house hanging out and helping any way I can, I was already considered her child to her and honestly they were the only real family I have ever really had. **edited** really is an amazing person he goes out of his way to help others especially me he is kind rational responsible and smart.

Now he would be furious if he found out I made a pray request for him because he doesn't want anything to do with faith

Hi Blain! Love ya! Yes I have prayed for **edited**...but sweetie we can pray and pray but if **edited** doesn't want to come to God...the Lord is not going to be as gracious as you hope. I do not mean this in an unkind way to your prayer. But dearest you know very sick people need God...and they are Christians. God gives atheists always a chance to come to him always! But honey, if **edited** won't budge God will not force the matter...you know this Blaine. But we care for you and because you ask I still pray! Love you my friend

God worked to bring me to Himself for many years, and some other people, many more. Reminds me of the proverb "justice is slow, but reaches its destination". That's kinda the way He works. Be patient and trust God is already working on your friend even if nothing is visibly going on, on the surface, He might already be preparing his heart and breaking the iron bars... God bless... :)
