Pray for a Tender Conscience and God-Wrought Love

Petition 3.21 | KJV

I must pray that my conscience may be always tender and that I may live a life of repentance.

Lord, take away the stony heart out of my flesh and give me a heart of flesh. Ezekiel 11:19(KJV)

Make me afraid of all appearances of evil, 1 Thessalonians 5:22(KJV) and careful not to give Satan advantage against me, as being not ignorant of his devices. 2 Corinthians 2:11(KJV)

Lord, give me the happiness which they have that fear always, Psalm 128:1(KJV) that when I think I stand, I may take heed lest I fall. 1 Corinthians 10:12(KJV)

I must pray to God to work in me charity and brotherly love.

Lord, put upon me that charity which is the bond of perfectness, Colossians 3:14(KJV) that I may keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace, Ephesians 4:3(KJV) and may live in love of peace, that the God of love and peace may be with me. 2 Corinthians 13:11(KJV)

Lord, give me to love my neighbour as myself with that love which is the fulfilling of the law; Romans 13:9-10(KJV) to love others with a pure heart fervently, 1 Peter 1:22(KJV) that hereby all men may know that I am Christ’s disciple. John 13:35(KJV)

And as your people are taught of God to love one another, give me to abound therein more and more; 1 Thessalonians 4:9-10(KJV) and as I have an opportunity, to do good to all men; Galatians 6:10(KJV) and as much as in me lies, to live peaceably with all men, Romans 12:18(KJV) always following after the things which make for peace, and things wherewith I may edify others. Romans 14:19(KJV)

Lord, make me able to love my enemies, to bless them that curse me, and to pray for them that despitefully use me, and to do good to them that hate me; Matthew 5:44(KJV) forbearing others and forgiving others in love, as Christ forgave me. Colossians 3:13(KJV)

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)
