Petition 3.11 | NIV
I must pray for the grace of God, and all the kind and powerful influences and operations of that grace.
I approach the throne of grace, so that I may receive not only mercy to pardon, but grace to help in every time of need: Hebrews 4:16(NIV) grace for seasonable help.
From the fullness that is in Jesus Christ (in whom it pleased the Father that all his fullness should dwell), Colossians 1:19(NIV) let me receive one blessing after another. John 1:16(NIV)
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.

Romans 6:18(NIV)
Through Christ Jesus, let the law of the Spirit of life set me free from the law of sin and death. Romans 8:2(NIV)
