Pray for the Support and Comfort you Need in your Afflictions

Petition 3.35 | NASB

I must pray for the effectual support and comfort under all the crosses and afflictions that I meet with in this world.

We know that we are born for trouble as sparks fly upward; Job 5:7(NASB) but from six troubles be pleased to deliver us, and in seven do not let evil touch us. Job 5:19(NASB)

Let the eternal God be our dwelling place, and underneath be the everlasting arms; Deuteronomy 33:27(NASB) that the spirit You have made may not grow faint before You, Isaiah 57:16(NASB) nor the soul that You have redeemed. Psalm 71:23(NASB)

Let us be strengthened with all power, according to Your glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience. Colossians 1:11(NASB)

Let Your statutes be our songs in the house of our pilgrimage; Psalm 119:54(NASB) and let Your testimonies, which we have inherited forever, be always the joy of our hearts. Psalm 119:111(NASB)

When we are afflicted in every way, let us not be crushed; and when we are perplexed, let us not be despairing; 2 Corinthians 4:8(NASB) but as sorrowful, let us be always rejoicing, as having nothing yet possessing all things. 2 Corinthians 6:10(NASB)

Pray for Grace to Make you Wiser and Better Every Day

Petition 3.34 | NASB

I must pray for grace to make me wiser and better every day than another.

Lord, give me to grow with a growth which is from God; Colossians 2:19(NASB) to grow in the grace and knowledge of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ; 2 Peter 3:18(NASB) to hold to my way; and, having clean hands, to grow stronger and stronger. Job 17:9(NASB)

Let my path be like the light of dawn, that shines brighter and brighter until the full day. Proverbs 4:18(NASB)

I have not yet obtained, nor have I already become perfect; Lord, grant that therefore, forgetting what lies behind, I may reach forward to what lies ahead, for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:12-14(NASB)

Be like the dew to me, that I may blossom like the lily and take root like a cedar of Lebanon; that my shoots may sprout, and my beauty may be like the olive tree. Hosea 14:5-6(NASB) And let the sun of righteousness rise upon me with healing in its wings, that I may go forth and skip about like a calf from the stall. Malachi 4:2(NASB)

Pray for Grace to Assist you that you may be Universally Conscientious

Petition 3.33 | NASB

That I may be universally conscientious.

O that I may stand perfect and fully assured in all the will of God. Colossians 4:12(NASB)

Oh that my ways may be established to keep Your commandments! And then I shall not be ashamed when I look upon them all. Psalm 119:5-6(NASB)

Teach me, O LORD, the way of Your statutes, and I shall observe it to the end. Give me understanding, that I may observe Your law and keep it with all my heart. Make me walk in the path of Your commandments, for I delight in them. Incline my heart to Your testimonies and not to dishonest gain. Psalm 119:33-36(NASB)

Grant me, I pray, according to the riches of Your glory, that I may be strengthened with all power through Your Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in my heart through faith; and that I, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and may know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge and be filled with a divine fullness, Ephesians 3:16-20(NASB) and may partake of a divine nature. 2 Peter 1:4(NASB)

And let the love of Christ control me to live not for myself, but for Him who died and rose again on my behalf. 2 Corinthians 5:14-15(NASB)
