Pray for Grace to Assist you that you may be Cheerful in your Duty

Petition 3.31 | KJV

That I may be pleasant and cheerful in my duty.

Lord, enable me to rejoice evermore, 1 Thessalonians 5:16(KJV) to rejoice in the Lord always, because he hath again said unto me, Rejoice; Philippians 4:4(KJV) that I may go on my way rejoicing, may eat my bread with joy, and drink my wine with a merry heart, as I shall have reason to do if God now accepteth my works. Ecclesiastes 9:7(KJV)

Give me grace to serve thee, the Lord my God, with joyfulness and gladness of heart in the abundance of all things; Deuteronomy 28:47(KJV) and to sing in the ways of the Lord, because great is the glory of my God. Psalm 138:5(KJV)

Let me have that cheerfulness of heart which doeth good like a medicine, Proverbs 17:22(KJV) and deliver me from that heaviness which maketh the heart stoop, Proverbs 12:25(KJV) and that sorrow of the world which worketh death. 2 Corinthians 7:10(KJV)

Pray for Grace to Assist you that you may be Courageous in your Duty

Petition 3.30 | KJV

That I may be resolute and courageous in my duty, as one that knows that though I may be a loser for Christ, I shall not be a loser by him in the end.

Lord, teach me to endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ, 2 Timothy 2:3(KJV) that I may not fear the reproach of men or their revilings, Isaiah 51:7(KJV) nor be ashamed of Christ or of his words, Mark 8:38(KJV) knowing whom I have believed, even one who is able to keep what I have committed to him against that day. 2 Timothy 1:12(KJV)

Though bonds and afflictions should abide me, Lord, grant that none of these things may move me, and that I may not count life itself dear to me, so I may finish my course with joy. Acts 20:23-24(KJV)

Enable me in all things to approve myself to God; 2 Corinthians 6:4(KJV) and then to pass by honour and dishonour, by evil report and good report, clad with the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on the left, 2 Corinthians 6:7-8(KJV) as one that accounts it a very small thing to be judged of man’s judgment, for he that judgeth me is the Lord. 1 Corinthians 4:3-4(KJV)

Pray for Grace to Assist you that you may be Diligent in your Duty

Petition 3.29 | KJV

That I may be active and diligent in my duty.

Lord, quicken me to work the works of him that sent me, while it is day, because the night comes, wherein no man can work; John 9:4(KJV) and what good my hands find to do, to do it with all my might, because there is no work or knowledge in the grave whither I am going. Ecclesiastes 9:10(KJV)

Lord, grant that I may never be slothful in any good business, but fervent in spirit, serving the Lord; Romans 12:11(KJV) steadfast and unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as I know that my labour is not in vain in the Lord. 1 Corinthians 15:58(KJV)

Lord, make me zealously affected in every good work; Galatians 4:18(KJV) and what I do, enable me to do it heartily, as unto the Lord and not unto men. Colossians 3:23(KJV)

Lord, enable me to do the work of every day in its day, according as the duty of the day requires, Ezra 3:4(KJV) redeeming the time, because the days are evil; Ephesians 5:16(KJV) that when my Lord comes, he may find me so doing. Luke 12:43(KJV)
