How does knowing the Holy Spirit is helping you pray change the way you pray?
Pray
Choose one Scripture and pray that verse as the Spirit leads.
Pray for a leader in your life: that God would fill them with godly wisdom, understanding, and supernatural insight; that God’s face would shine upon them and they would have His favor.
Pray for someone who is against you: that you feel the Lord’s compassion and love for them; that kindness would lead them to repentance; that the Lord would be gracious and good to them.
Pray for your campus pastors, leaders, and serve teams: that they be encouraged and strengthened; that they be filled by the Holy Spirit; for God’s protection and blessing; that people would rise up to serve each other.
Pray for your city: for supernatural intervention; for schools, businesses, and government entities; for peace and prosperity; for His kingdom to come.
Pray for the peace of God to guard your heart and mind: give your burdens to the Lord; give your circumstances to the Lord; give your worries to the Lord; stop thinking about it and start praying about it.
Pray for the desires of your heart: ask, seek, and knock; that your desires would come in line with His desires; that you would surrender your will to His will.
