Pray for God’s Grace to Fortify you Against Everything Evil

Petition 3.11 | KJV

I must pray for the grace of God, and all the kind and powerful influences and operations of that grace.

I come to the throne of grace, that I may obtain not only mercy to pardon, but grace to help in every time of need: Hebrews 4:16(KJV) grace for seasonable help.

From the fulness that is in Jesus Christ (in whom it pleased the Father that all fulness should dwell), Colossians 1:19(KJV) let me receive, and grace for grace. John 1:16(KJV)

I must pray for grace to fortify myself against every evil thought, word, and work. Having been earnest for the removing of the guilt of sin, that I may not die for it as a crime, I must be no less earnest for the breaking of the power of sin, that I may not die by it as a disease, but that it may be mortified in me.

O let no iniquity have dominion over me, because I am not under the law but under grace. Romans 6:14(KJV)

Let the flesh be crucified in me, with its affections and lusts; Galatians 5:24(KJV) that walking in the Spirit, I may not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. Galatians 5:16(KJV)

Let my old man be crucified with Christ, that the body of sin may be destroyed, that henceforth I may not serve sin. Romans 6:6(KJV) And let not sin reign in my mortal body (in my immortal soul), that I should obey it in the lusts thereof, Romans 6:12(KJV) but being made free from sin, let me become the servant of righteousness. Romans 6:18(KJV)

Let the law of the Spirit of life, which is in Christ Jesus, make me free from the law of sin and death. Romans 8:2(KJV)

Give me grace to put off the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts, Ephesians 4:22(KJV) that I may put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness. Ephesians 4:24(KJV)

That the world may be crucified to me, and I to the world, by the cross of Christ. Galatians 6:14(KJV)

Pray for a Well-Grounded Peace of Conscience

Petition 3.10 | KJV

That I may have a well-grounded peace of conscience, a holy security and serenity of mind arising from a sense of my justification before God and a good work wrought in me.

The Lord of peace himself give me peace, all peace, always, by all means: 2 Thessalonians 3:16(KJV) That peace which Jesus Christ hath left with his people, which he gives to me; such a peace as the world can neither give nor take away; such a peace as that my heart may not be troubled nor afraid. John 14:27(KJV)

Let the work of righteousness in my soul be peace, and the effect of righteousness, quietness and assurance for ever. Isaiah 32:17(KJV)

Speak peace unto thy people and to thy saints, and let not them turn again to folly. Psalm 85:8(KJV)

O create the fruit of the lips, Peace, peace to them that are afar off and to them that are nigh; and restore comfort to thy mourners. Isaiah 57:18-19(KJV)

Where the sons of peace are, let thy peace find them out and rest upon them. Luke 10:6(KJV)

Cause me to hear thy loving-kindness and to taste that thou art gracious, 1 Peter 2:3(KJV) for in thee do I trust. Psalm 143:8(KJV)

Let the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, keep my heart and mind, through Christ Jesus; Philippians 4:7(KJV) and let that peace rule in my heart, unto which I am called. Colossians 3:15(KJV)

Now the God of hope fill me with all joy and peace in believing, that I may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost. Romans 15:13(KJV)

Pray for a Sense of Assurance

Petition 3.9 | KJV

I must pray for the comfortable sense of my reconciliation to God and my acceptance with him.

That I may have some evidence of the pardon of my sins and of my adoption.

O make me to hear joy and gladness, that the bones which sin hath broken may rejoice. Psalm 51:8(KJV)

Say unto each of your children, Son, Daughter, be of good cheer; thy sins are forgiven thee. Matthew 9:2(KJV)

Let the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge my conscience from dead works to serve thee, the living God. Hebrews 9:14(KJV)

Let thy Spirit witness with my spirit, that I am a child of God, and if a child, then an heir, heir of God and a joint heir with Christ. Romans 8:16-17(KJV)

Say unto my soul that thou art my salvation. Psalm 35:3(KJV)
