Pray for the Fear of God and for the Love of God to be Rooted in you

Petition 3.20 | KJV

I must pray for the fear of God.

Lord, work in me that fear of thee, which is the beginning of wisdom, Psalm 111:10(KJV) which is the instruction of wisdom, Proverbs 15:33(KJV) and which is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death. Proverbs 14:27(KJV)

Unite my heart to fear thy name, Psalm 86:11(KJV) that I may keep thy commandments, which is the whole duty of man. Ecclesiastes 12:13(KJV)

O put thy fear into my heart, that I may never depart from thee. Jeremiah 32:40(KJV) Let me be devoted to thy fear; Psalm 119:38(KJV) and let me be in the fear of the Lord every day and all the day long. Proverbs 23:17(KJV)

I must pray that the love of God and Christ may be rooted in me and, in order thereunto, that the love of the world may be rooted out of me.

Give me grace, I beseech thee, to love thee, the Lord my God, with all my heart and soul and mind and might, Mark 12:30(KJV) which is the first and great commandment; Matthew 22:37-38(KJV) to set my love upon thee; Psalm 91:14(KJV) and to delight myself always in thee; and therein I shall have the desires of my heart. Psalm 37:4(KJV)

Circumcise my heart to love thee, the Lord my God, with all my heart and with all my soul, that I may live. Deuteronomy 30:6(KJV)

O that the love of God may be shed abroad in my heart by the Holy Ghost. Romans 5:5(KJV)

O that Jesus Christ may be very precious to me, as he is to all that believe; 1 Peter 2:7(KJV) that he may be in my account the chiefest of ten thousand and altogether lovely; Song of Solomon 5:10(KJV) and that he may be my beloved and my friend: Song of Solomon 5:16(KJV) That though I have not seen him, yet I may love him; and though I now see him not, yet believing, I may rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory. 1 Peter 1:8(KJV)

Let the love of Christ to me constrain me to live, not to myself, but to him that died for me and rose again. 2 Corinthians 5:14-15(KJV)

And, Lord, grant that I may not love the world nor the things that are in the world, because if any man loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him; 1 John 2:15(KJV) that I may set my affections on things above, and not on things that are on the earth. Colossians 3:2(KJV)

Pray for Faith

Petition 3.19 | KJV

I must pray for faith.

Unto me, Lord, let it be given to believe; Philippians 1:29(KJV) for the faith by which I am saved is not of myself, it is the gift of God. Ephesians 2:8(KJV)

Lord, increase my faith, Luke 17:5(KJV) and perfect what is lacking in it, 1 Thessalonians 3:10(KJV) that I may be strong in faith, giving glory to God. Romans 4:20(KJV)

Lord, give me so to be crucified with Christ, as that the life I may live in the flesh, I may live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me; Galatians 2:20(KJV) and so to bear about with me continually the dying of the Lord Jesus, as that the life also of Jesus may be manifested in my mortal body. 2 Corinthians 4:10(KJV)

As I have received Christ Jesus the Lord, enable me so to walk in him, rooted and built up in him and established in the faith, as I have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. Colossians 2:6-7(KJV)

Let every word of thine profit me, being mixed with faith, Hebrews 4:2(KJV) by which I receive thy testimony, and set to my seal that God is true. John 3:33(KJV)

I beseech thee, work in me that faith which is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen, Hebrews 11:1(KJV) by which I may look above the things that are seen, that are temporal, and may look at the things that are not seen, that are eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:18(KJV)

Enable me by faith to set the Lord always before me, Psalm 16:8(KJV) and to have my eyes ever towards him, Psalm 25:15(KJV) that I may act in every thing, as seeing him that is invisible, and having a respect to the recompense of reward. Hebrews 11:26-27(KJV)

Let my heart be purified by faith, Acts 15:9(KJV) and let it be my victory overcoming the world; 1 John 5:4(KJV) and let me be kept from fainting by believing that I shall see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Psalm 27:13(KJV)

Pray for Grace to Sanctify your Nature

Petition 3.18 | KJV

To sanctify my nature, to plant in me all holy principles and dispositions, and to increase every grace in me.

The very God of peace sanctify me wholly; and I pray God, my whole spirit and soul and body may be preserved blameless unto the coming of my Lord Jesus Christ; for faithful is he that calleth, who also will do it. 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24(KJV)

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me: Cast me not away from thy presence, and take not thy Holy Spirit away from me; restore unto me the joy of thy salvation, and uphold me with thy free Spirit. Psalm 51:10-12(KJV)

Write thy law in my heart, and put it in my inward part, Jeremiah 31:33(KJV) that I may be an epistle of Christ, written by the Spirit of the living God, not in a table of stone, but in a fleshly table of the heart; 2 Corinthians 3:3(KJV) that the law of my God being in my heart, none of my steps may slide, Psalm 37:31(KJV) and I may delight to do thy will, O God; Psalm 40:8(KJV) may delight in the law of God after the inward man. Romans 7:22(KJV)

O that I may obey from the heart that form of doctrine into which I desire to be delivered, as into a mould, Romans 6:17(KJV) that my whole soul may be leavened by it; Matthew 13:33(KJV) and that I may not be conformed to this world, but transformed by the renewing of my mind; Romans 12:2(KJV) may not fashion myself after my former lusts in my ignorance, but as an obedient child, may be holy in all manner of conversation, as he who hath called me is holy. 1 Peter 1:14-15(KJV)
