Scripture Base: Luke 15:7

Thus, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one [especially] wicked person who repents (changes his mind, abhorring his errors and misdeeds, and determines to enter upon a better course of life) than over ninety-nine righteous persons who have no need of repentance. Luke 15:7 AMPC 

Introduction:

Dear people of God, in addition to praying for the lost or missing persons, let us also pray for those who are grieving from the death of loved ones. 

Lost persons are those who have not accepted Christ Jesus as their Personal Savior. 

Missing persons are either Victims  or Ghosting persons. 

‘Ghosting persons’ are cowards who run away from their lovers, family, or friends without any explanations. They are living-dead persons.

Not all ‘ghosting persons’ wickedly vanish because they don’t want  to give child-support. 

Some ghosting persons are just monsters who renege on promises they made in order to take advantage of gullible people. When they find themselves in a bind, instead of admitting their lies and confronting the issues, they just ‘ghost’ their victims. 

Although these are the worst kind of Human predators, they too need our prayers for deliverance from  lying, wickedness and insensitivity. 

Other ‘ghosting persons’ are the mentally unstable ones who disconnect from family, friends and lovers, because they need time to process their issues. They need healings and the grace to face their fears.

Whether the missing person is a victim or a deliberate ‘ghost’, they are missed by loved ones who are grieving.

These grieving persons need closure too. They need to find their loved ones, or receive news that they are alive,  or

find comfort as they learn to live without their kidnapped, dead or ghosting oved ones. 

As a child, I remember how traumatized my mom was, when her oldest daughter went missing during the Nigerian civil war of 1967.

My oldest sister was never found,  we never knew what happened to her. Mom was never the same again. She grieved her missing child and died five years later at a young age.

Parents, family or friends of missing persons can relate. They never stop grieving for the loss and are always hopeful about finding the person.

It is easier to get over a dead relative than to get over a missing child or relative, because you keep seeing them in everybody.

Burial of the dead brings closure,  and starts  the healing process. Not so for those whose family or friends are missing! The closure they need is to find that missing child, friend, or spouse, or receive news about their well-being. Let us pray:
