Passage Read: 1 John 5 - 2 John 1
Meditation Verses: 1 John 5:16-18

Thought

I need to pray for those who commit sin, that God would grant them life, which seems to include repentance and giving up their sin in this context. All wrongdoing is sin, and the one who belongs to God does not continue to sin. So if someone sins and I pray for them, and even attempt to correct them, but they don't change, then they probably don't belong to God. In that case, I need to pray for their repentance and belief in Christ!

Application

I need to pray daily for certain people who seem to like church but not to know God or righteous behavior.
