Importance of Prayer - Specific Prayers 2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people which are called by name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. John 14:13-14 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. We know from scripture that prayer is important to God. Jesus was constantly communicating with the Father through prayer. Mark Because God places so much emphasis on prayer, we must constantly seek our Heavenly Father through prayer. Prayer has to be a top priority in our daily lives. But I don't know how to pray, you may be telling yourself. Or I'm lost for words, I don't know what to pray. Whether you're a new believer or one who struggles with prayer, this page will help you grow in your prayer life.

Back to List Faith Hebrews 11:1 states that "NOW FAITH is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. In Romans 12:3, it tell us that every man has been dealt a measure of faith. You may not think that you live by faith, but in reality, you do. When you go to the doctors, you have faith in the doctors and their diagnosis. When you buy groceries from the store, you have faith that the food is not contaminated. You have faith that your car will start in the morning. Faith is the tiny spark inside of us that no matter what we may know, no matter what "Logic" tells us, we know that God is able. Self and the devil are very quick to send doubts and unbelief. We must be just as quick to proclaim our faith. The limit of our faith is the limit that we put on it. Pray that the Lord would. . . Give you greater faith Give you understanding that your faith is not in the wisdom of men but the power of God Help your unbelief Help you walk by faith and not by sight Help you to bind the spirits of doubt and unbelief in Jesus name Help you to see with spiritual eyes and not the natural Give you the ability to believe in Him, His Word, and His promises Help you to live by faith Give you peace as you put your trust in Him Hebrews 11:6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. 2 Corinthians 5:7 For we walk by faith, not be sight. 1 Corinthians 2:5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. Ephesians Matthew 21:21,22 Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. Romans Matthew 17:20And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief; for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto the mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. Matthew Family Family is very important to God. We need to pray for the saving of the family unit, to go back to the old values where the family unit was strong and family ties ran deep. The family was founded upon divine creation and Satan has set out to destroy the family and to cause friction among them. Families used to sit down together at the dinner table, used to do things together and take an interest in each other's lives. Television and more recently computers have all but replaced family togetherness. Members of the family rarely do anything together much less talk to each other. In this fast-paced life, we're living, we need to apply some spiritual brakes, slow down and evaluate what is really important in our lives. FAMILIES WHO PRAY TOGETHER, STAY TOGETHER. IN UNITY THERE IS STRENGTH. Pray that the Lord would. . . Help you to understand each other Help you to keep His commandments Teach you how to honor and respect each other Give you encouraging words to speak to one another Help you to overlook the little things Show you how to love one another unconditionally Grant you a loving heart Keep your family in the center of His will Place fathers as the spiritual leaders of the family as God intended them to be Plant His hedge of protection around your entire family Lead your family in the paths of righteousness Help children to be subjective to their parents Restore unity between husbands and wives Restore unity between parents and children Place a desire for family unit in your home 1 Peter 3:7 Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered. Ephesians Proverbs 24:3,4 Through wisdom is an house builded; and by understanding it is established: And by knowledge shall the chambers be filled with all precious and pleasant riches. Ephesians 6:2 CHILDREN, OBEY your parents in the Lord: for this is right. Honour thy father and mother; which is the first commandment with promise; Ephesians 6:4 And ye fathers, provoke not your children to wrath: but bring them up in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Colossians 3:18-21 Wives, submit yourselves unto your husbands, as it is fit in the Lord. Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them. Children, obey your parents in all things: for this is well pleasing unto the lord. Fathers provoke not your children to anger, lest they be discouraged.

John Isaiah 41:10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee, yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Psalm 27:1 THE LORD is my light and salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? Psalm 91: 5,6 Thou shall not be afraid for the terror by nigh; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor of the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. Hebrews 13:6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is me helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. Matthew

Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love you enemies, bless them that curse, do good to them that hate you, and pray to them that despitefully use you, and persecute you; Colossians James Mark 2:5 When Jesus saw their faith, he said unto the sick of the palsy, Son, thy sins are forgiven thee. Luke 7:47, 48 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little. And he said unto her, Thy sins are forgiven. Back to List Gossip When we gossip, we are being disloyal to God, our friends, and ourselves. A loyal friend is a treasure. When you demonstrate loyalty, people will want to have you for a friend. Gossiping can also be very destructive. When you gossip to someone, they will be on guard, because they will think that you will also gossip about them to others. We should learn to control our tongue that it would not hurt our neighbor with careless talk. Our speech should reflect the love of our Lord Jesus Christ. Pray that the Lord would. . . Help us to commit our speaking only to what is true and right Help us not to speak harsh words, but to be quick to listen, and slow to speak Teach us to be mindful of the feelings of others before we speak Help us to be an example in our speech to others Protect us from the traps that Satan sets for our mind and tongue Help us to use our voice to uplift others Help us to realize that we must be loyal to God, others, and ourselves Help us to seek His wisdom for what we say and also to what we hear Psalm 19 Proverbs 8:6-8 Hear; for I will speak of excellent things; and the opening of my lips shall be right things. For my mouth shall speak truth; and wickedness is an abomination to my lips. All the words of my mouth are in righteousness; there is nothing forward or perverse in them. Ephesians 4:29 Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. Matthew 12:36-37 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. For by thy words thou shalt be justified, and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. Romans 14:12-13 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge this rather, that no man put a stumbling block or an occasion to fall in his brother's way. James Intimidation The root of intimidation is fear, and fear causes people to focus on themselves. Its objective is to restrain you from accomplishing the will of God. It causes you to compromise what you know to be right and tolerate circumstances which you shouldn't stand for. The fear of man causes you to withdraw from God and His ways. But God did not give us a spirit of fear but of power and of love and of a sound mind (2 Tim 1:7). All we have to do is believe Him and then walk in that power and authority. When your spirit is filled with power, love, and the Word of God, you will not fall prey to intimidation. Don't let the devil have his way -- Break your intimidation. Flee to Jesus. You will find refuge in Him. Pray that the Lord would. . . Reveal your fears to you Give you courage to stand for what is right and for what is truth Break the bonds of intimidation that hold you down Teach you to rely on His strength and His power Help you to not yield to fear Give you a fear for Him and not man Bless you with faith and boldness Luke 12:4-5 And I way unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do. But I will forewarn you whom ye shall fear: Fear him, which after he hath killed hath power to cast into hell; yea, I say unto you, Fear him. Hebrews 13:5-6 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me. Luke Romans 8:31What shall we then say to these things? IF God be for us, who can be against us? Psalm 108:13 Through God we shall do valiantly: for he it is that shall trend down our enemies. Envy, covetousness, resentment, suspicion, distrust, these are all a part of the ugly manifestations of jealousy. Whether you dislike your neighbor because they have a more expensive house or car, it's jealousy. Whether you wish you were the one getting the promotion or praise in the quarterly work meeting, it's jealousy. If you wish you had nicer clothes and did everything to get them, it's also a form of jealousy. Whenever these types of feelings arise, we need to remember what Moses said on Pray that the Lord would. . . Deliver you from enviousness and covetousness Expose and remove any jealousy in your life Help you to realize that Jealousy is a Spirit and to rebuke the Spirit by name Help you to understand His divine will and purpose for your life Help you realize He will provide all you need according to His riches in Heaven Help you to fast and bring your body and mind unto subjection Help you to set you goals on Heavenly things Help you to be humble Teach you to love your neighbor Psalm 37:7 Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.

By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. Proverbs 27:3-4 A stone is heavy and the sand is weighty, But a fool's wrath is heavier than both of them. Wrath is cruel and anger is outrageous , But who is able to stand before envy? Philippians 2:3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each steam other better than themselves. Galatians Loneliness There are many people who don't know how lonely they are. They fill up their day with work, family, and activities, but they still feel a void in their life. They lack that intimate relationship with someone. We all need genuine friendships. Denying that robs us the fullness of God's plan. In Genesis 2:18, the Lord says, "It is not good for the man to be alone." The way to combat loneliness is to build solid relationships. The church makes one of the best places to build enduring friendships. There's a common sense of purpose and mission. Another way to combat loneliness is to reach out and help others in need. The loneliness people in the world are those who are afraid of giving to others. The best way to combat loneliness is to start praising God. When you focus your attention on the goodness of God, it is impossible to fill lonely. The Holy Spirit will fill your heart with the awareness of God's presence. Pray that the Lord would. . . Help you to reach out to those in need Help you to trust in the nearness of God Fill your heart with praises for Him Guide you to the right church Fill your life with Christian friends Help you to give all your cares to Him Give you strength and courage Teach you how to be a true friend Proverbs John Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and be in you.

Psalm 46:1 GOD IS our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Proverbs Love Deep down inside the heart everyone wants to be loved. Love is the greatest power there is. No matter what people do or say to you, love helps you to overcome the hurts, and yet causes you to show compassion and forgiveness to those who come against you. When you do wrong, love chasteneth. You don't know love until you know Jesus Christ. When you're born of the water and Spirit, love comes pouring in. Love will also start pouring out from you. Love will transform you and others around you. Love forgave our sins. Greater love paid the price for us, his friends. (John 15:13). So let's show love to one another so people will know we are His. (John 13:35) When those around you feel that love, they will respond. Pray that the Lord would. . . Open doors for you to show His love Give you a loving heart Help you to love your enemies and pray for them more Change you to be the mirror of Him, to grow in His love Open the hearts of those around you and to let love into their lives Help you to be long-suffering Chasteneth you when you need it and to help you learn from it Help you to labor after His love so that His banner of love would guide and protect you Teach you how to walk in love John 1 John 4:7,8 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of god, and knoweth God.

Deuteronomy 6:5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. Proverbs John Marriage In today's society when many people are afraid to make a commitment, there are more people opting to live together than ever before. Many marriages end up in divorce because people no longer honor the vow they made to each other and to God. For many, marriage is no longer looked on as holy. But from the beginning of creation God ordained marriage, the union of one man and one woman, to be a lifetime commitment. It is true that we are living in a very different time and it takes total devotion to your spouse and especially to God for a marriage to survive. When we marry, we are no longer two but one flesh. Together we must partner with God and allow him to be Lord of our marriage. Pray that the Lord would. . .

Ephesians Peace Peace is something that the world and man have been looking for since the early days of time. Peace is a time of calamity, absent of war, free from disagreements. Peace is a time when a person doesn't have to worry about the storms of life hitting them in the face all the time. Jesus Christ is the perfect peace we all must seek after. In Mark 4:39, Jesus arose and rebuked the wind and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. Whatever comes your way in life, be of god cheer, for Jesus, your peace, has overcome the world. No matter how rough the storm may feel in your life right now, know that Jesus is here to help you through it. In John 14:27, Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Colossians Romans 8:6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Romans Pride Pride is when we start thinking of ourselves. It is the "I" disease. It is when we think that the things we have accomplished or accumulated in life are due to our own powers and abilities rather than God. Pride prevents us from seeing any wrong in ourselves. It separates us from God. Pride makes us stubborn and makes us put on false fronts. It makes us think we are better or know more than another. May the God of heaven help us not to think of ourselves more highly than the King Himself. Satan thought this way once and it cost him his place in heaven. In life, we need to always remember that all glory and honor belongs to God and not to man. Never should we try to think of ourselves better than another for we are all sinners, saved by His grace. Is pride affecting you? Are you afraid to share your faith because of what others will think? Are you afraid to reach out to someone for fear of being rejected? Are you afraid to step out in faith for fear of failing? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, then you are placing more importance on self than on God and pride has entered your life. You need to repent of this sin and ask God for His forgiveness. Pray that the Lord would. . .

Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble. Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time. 1 Timothy 3:6 Not a novice, lest being lifted up with pride he fall into the condemnation of the devil. 1 John Obadiah 1:3, 4 The pride of thine heart hath deceived thee, thou that dwellest in the clefts of the rock, whose habitation is high; that saith in his heart, Who shall bring me down to the ground? Though thou exalt thyself as the eagle, and though thou set thy nest among the stars, thence will I bring thee down, saith the Lord. Proverbs 11:2 When pride cometh, then cometh shame: but with the lowly is wisdom. Psalm 73:6 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment. 1 John 1:8,9 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
