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. Serving God
a) Lord God, in accordance with Your perfect word I pray that I will walk after You and that I will serve You. Your word is clear that I cannot serve two masters. I ask You to use Your Holy Spirit to guide me and direct me in this area of my life in accordance with Your word. Thank You in Jesus' name. Amen.
3. God's Word
a) 1 Chronicles 28:9 New King James Version (NKJV)
9 “As for you, my son Solomon, know the God of your father, and serve Him with a loyal heart and with a willing mind; for the Lord searches all hearts and understands all the intent of the thoughts. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will cast you off forever.
b) Romans 7:6 New King James Version (NKJV)
6 But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter.
c) Psalm 100:2-3 New King James Version (NKJV)
2 Serve the Lord with gladness;
Come before His presence with singing.
3 Know that the Lord, He is God;
It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;
We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.
