Pray for Faith

Petition 3.19 | NASB

I must pray for faith.

To me, Lord, let it be granted to believe; Philippians 1:29(NASB) for the faith by which I am saved is not of myself, it is the gift of God. Ephesians 2:8(NASB)

Lord, increase my faith, Luke 17:5(NASB) and complete what is lacking in it, 1 Thessalonians 3:10(NASB) that I may grow strong in faith, giving glory to God. Romans 4:20(NASB)

Lord, give me so to be crucified with Christ, as that the life which I now live in the flesh, I may live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me; Galatians 2:20(NASB) and so to carry about in me continually the dying of Jesus, as that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in my mortal body. 2 Corinthians 4:10(NASB)

As I have received Christ Jesus the Lord, enable me so to walk in Him, having been firmly rooted and now being built up in Him and established in my faith, just as I was instructed, and overflowing with gratitude. Colossians 2:6-7(NASB)

Let every word of Yours profit me, being united by faith in me, Hebrews 4:2(NASB) by which I receive Your testimony and set my seal to this, that God is true. John 3:33(NASB)

I beg You, work in me that faith which is the assurance of things hoped for and the conviction of things not seen, Hebrews 11:1(NASB) by which I may look above the things which are seen, which are temporal, and may look at the things which are not seen, which are eternal. 2 Corinthians 4:18(NASB)

Enable me by faith to set the LORD continually before me, Psalm 16:8(NASB) and to have my eyes continually toward Him, Psalm 25:15(NASB) that I may act in everything as seeing Him who is unseen, and look to the reward. Hebrews 11:26-27(NASB)

Let my heart be cleansed by faith, Acts 15:9(NASB) and let it be my victory to overcome the world; 1 John 5:4(NASB) and let me be kept from despairing by believing that I will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Psalm 27:13(NASB)

Pray for Grace to Sanctify your Nature

Petition 3.18 | NASB

To sanctify my nature, to plant in me all holy principles and dispositions, and to increase every grace in me.

Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify me entirely; and may my spirit and soul and body be preserved complete, without blame at the coming of my Lord Jesus Christ. For faithful is He who calls me, and He also will bring it to pass. 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24(NASB)

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me away from Your presence and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation and sustain me with a willing spirit. Psalm 51:10-12(NASB)

Write Your law on my heart and put it within me, Jeremiah 31:33(NASB) that I may be a letter of Christ, written by the Spirit of the living God, not on a tablet of stone but on a tablet of human heart; 2 Corinthians 3:3(NASB) that the law of my God being in my heart, none of my steps may slip, Psalm 37:31(NASB) and I may delight to do Your will, O God; Psalm 40:8(NASB) may joyfully concur with the law of God in my inner man. Romans 7:22(NASB)

O that I may become obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which I desire to be committed, as into a mold, Romans 6:17(NASB) that my whole soul may be leavened by it; Matthew 13:33(NASB) and that I may not be conformed to this world, but transformed by the renewing of my mind; Romans 12:2(NASB) may not be conformed to the former lusts which were mine in my ignorance, but as an obedient child, may be holy in all my behavior, like the Holy One who called me. 1 Peter 1:14-15(NASB)

Pray for Grace to Direct your Conscience and Make you Wise

Petition 3.17 | NASB

To direct my conscience, to show me the way of my duty, and to make me a wise, knowing, judicious Christians.

Lord, give me a wise and understanding heart, 1 Kings 3:9(NASB) that wisdom which in all cases has the advantage of giving success; Ecclesiastes 10:10(NASB) that wisdom of the sensible which is to understand his way. Proverbs 14:8(NASB)

This I pray, that my love may abound still more and more in real knowledge and all discernment, so that I may approve the things that are excellent, in order to be sincere and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness which comes through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God. Philippians 1:9-11(NASB)

O that I may be filled with the knowledge of Your will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, so that I may walk in a manner worthy of God, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God. Colossians 1:9-10(NASB)

Teach me Your way, O God, and lead me in a level path because of my observers. Psalm 27:11(NASB)

When I do not know what to do, my eyes are on You; 2 Chronicles 20:12(NASB) then let me hear the Lord behind me, saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” whenever I turn to the right or to the left. Isaiah 30:21(NASB)

Establish my footsteps in Your word, and do not let any iniquity have dominion over me. Psalm 119:133(NASB)
