Personal Prayer
Praise God for the fact that he has revealed himself to mere mortals. Give thanks that the Lord has spoken plainly about himself and his will in his Word, which is a lamp to your feet and a light for your path (Ps. 119:105). Confess any failures in seeking the teaching, rebuking, correcting, and training in righteousness that come from the inspired Scriptures (2 Tim. 3:16). Commit yourself to being “thoroughly equipped for every good work” (3:17). Ask God to do good works through you.
For Your Family and Friends
Pray that God removes any distractions to wholesome love among your family and friends. Ask that all ungodly priorities and self-interests will be wiped away so that love can abound.
For the Church
Thank God for faithful teachers in the church. Pray that they will be encouraged by the Spirit to communicate life-changing truths.
For the Kingdom
Pray for those nations (name them) in which war has caused great human hardship and many casualties. Ask God to bring peace-loving, stable governments to power in these places.
For People to Know Jesus
Pray that unsaved persons whom you know will have an interest in studying the Bible, and that they will meet the Author as they do so.
