(2 Corinthians 7:9-10; Deuteronomy 6:5; John 13:34; Isaiah 26:9; Nehemiah 9:2-3; James 5:16)
- Pray for your personal spiritual growth and maturity—no longer desiring milk, but the meat of God’s word to guide your life.
- Pray that you will grieve over your own personal sins, confess and repent.
- Pray to know God better through his word and prayer—hungering and thirsting after God and His righteousness.
- Pray for desire and commitment to dedicate more time with God in prayer and in studying and applying God’s word to your daily life.
- Pray for spiritual accountability and freshness to fall upon you, your church family and the church at large.
- Pray to effectively serve in the church body—using your spiritual gifts and talents for mission, ministry and witness.
- Pray for spirit-lead and anointed pastors, worship leaders, musicians, choirs, praise teams, staff, ministry leaders and volunteers.
