If you are an Atheist....
or if you know people who claim to be "Atheists" then you and they should have no problem to rise to the occasion and
mimic something that I did myself back in 1990, [not long after the fast of Yom Kippur].
"I began a tradition of sorts back in 1990 that many of your Atheist or Agnostic friends may find interesting......
I literally raised my right hand in the air....
I partly quoted and partly paraphrased Isaiah chapter forty five.....
I asked Messiah Yeshua - Jesus to take me by the right hand and show me my errors... and sins...... and flaws in my reasoning.... so that I would NOT deceive people as I felt that I personally had been partly deceived on some pretty big and important questions.
If somebody lacks the courage to literally raise their right hands in the air and "pray" to be led by the right hand as ancient King Cyrus was......
then that person cannot really claim to be an "Atheist".... they are at minimum an "Agnostic" with at least a little bit of fear over what it might be like if Messiah Yeshua - Jesus were to begin to intervene in their lives and mentor and guide them?"

Cyrus, God’s Instrument
1“Thus says the Lord to His anointed,
To Cyrus, whose right hand I have held—
To subdue nations before him
And loose the armor of kings,
To open before him the double doors,
So that the gates will not be shut:
2‘I will go before you
And make the crooked places straight;
I will break in pieces the gates of bronze
And cut the bars of iron.
3I will give you the treasures of darkness
And hidden riches of secret places,
That you may know that I, the Lord,
Who call you by your name,
Am the God of Israel.
4For Jacob My servant’s sake,
And Israel My elect,
I have even called you by your name;
I have named you, though you have not known Me.
5I am the Lord, and there is no other;
There is no God besides Me.
I will gird you, though you have not known Me,
6That they may know from the rising of the sun to its setting
That there is none besides Me.
I am the Lord, and there is no other;
7I form the light and create darkness,
I make peace and create calamity;
I, the Lord, do all these things.’
