And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;

 

Romans 5:6 NKJV

For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

Romans 5:7

For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die.

Romans 5:8

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

 

2. Pray for Learning the will of God

 

 

Matthew 26:39 NKJV

He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.

 

 

3. Pray for Laborers

But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd.

Matthew 9:37

Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few.

Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.”

“I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word;

John 17:22

And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one:

John 17:23

I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.

John 17:24

“Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.

O righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me.

On that night God appeared to Solomon, and said to him, “Ask! What shall I give you?”
