PRAYING GOD'S WILL | CONFIDENCE (3)

1. Praying God's Will

a) What should you pray for? Scripture is clear that you should pray God's word. At the same time, you must never forget that God is sovereign and that He is not obligated to a name-it-and-claim-it theology. God will always do what is best. But at the same time you will do well to understand that when you pray God's word, you are actually praying both the mind and the perfect will of God for yourself.

b) If you follow a systematic plan of praying God's will, you will see dynamic growth take place in your life. You will become the man God intended you to be.

2. Confidence

Lord Jesus, based upon God's word I call upon You to fill me with confidence. Give me the spiritual confidence to know that whatever I ask in Your name I will receive. Fill me with the confidence that only You can give. Thank You for honoring Your word and my prayers. Amen.

3. God's Word
