PRAYING GOD'S WILL | GRIEF / HURTING (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. Grief / Hurting

a) God, You know the hurt in my life. And You already know other hurts that are yet to come to me. By and through Your word I pray that You will console me in a very special way. Wipe away my tears and bring joy back into my life. I pray Your own words for those results. Please hear and honor them in Jesus' name. Amen.

3. God's Word

a) Psalm 23:4 New King James Version (NKJV)

4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

b) 1 Corinthians 15:55 New King James Version (NKJV)

55 “O Death, where is your sting?
O Hades, where is your victory?”

c) Revelation 21:4 New King James Version (NKJV)

4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”

d) Isaiah 41:10 New King James Version (NKJV)

10 Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’
