My Prayer for You
It is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, …. Philippians 1:9a
“And he (Jesus) said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” (Matthew 22:37-39 ESV)
It is my prayer that you love God with all your heart, soul, and mind.
I pray that you also love the people around you.
…. with knowledge and all discernment, …. Philippians 1:9b
I pray that your love is not simply an emotional love, but rather it is love that comes from embracing the truths found in scripture.
…. so that you may approve what is excellent …. Philippians 1:10a
I pray that your growing love for God and others, as well as your love for Biblical truths, enables you, with the help of the Holy Spirit, to know right from wrong. I pray that you will become better equipped to make right decisions and good choices.
…. and so be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, …. Philippians 1:10b
I pray that you have a right relationship with God. I pray that you relate to others in such a way that you do not cause them to stumble.
…. filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ, …. Philippians 1:11a
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. (Galatians 5:22-23 ESV)
I pray that your life is full of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.
…. to the glory and praise of God. Philippians 1:11b
So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. (1 Corinthians 10:31 ESV)
I pray that your life glorifies God.
This is my prayer for you. Feel free to pray this for me.
