Pray for Grace to Assist you that you may do your Duty Always and Everywhere

Petition 3.32 | KJV

That I may do the duty of every condition of life, every event of providence, and every relation wherein I stand.

Lord, enable me in a day of prosperity to be joyful, and in a day of adversity to consider, because God hath set the one over against the other; Ecclesiastes 7:14(KJV) to add to my knowledge temperance, and to temperance patience. 2 Peter 1:6(KJV)

Give me grace to abide with thee in the calling wherein I am called, 1 Corinthians 7:24(KJV) and in all my ways to acknowledge thee; Proverbs 3:6(KJV) and be thou pleased to direct my steps. Proverbs 16:9(KJV)

Let those that are called, being servants, be the Lord’s freemen; and those that are called, being free, be Christ’s servants. 1 Corinthians 7:22(KJV)

Let all in every relation dwell together in unity, Psalm 133:1(KJV) that it may be as the dew of Hermon and as the dew that descends upon the mountains of Zion. Psalm 133:3(KJV) O that I may dwell together as a joint-heir of the grace of life with your people, that my prayers may not be hindered. 1 Peter 3:7(KJV)

Give me grace to honour all men, to love the brotherhood, to fear God, 1 Peter 2:17(KJV) and to be subject to the higher powers, Romans 13:1(KJV) not only for wrath but also for conscience’s sake. Romans 13:5(KJV)

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)
