Let's pray His Word

One of our blog readers has asked about praying Philippians 4:13 and Jeremiah 29:11.
I can do everything through Him who gives me strength. Philippians 4:13 (NIV)

You could pray:
1. "Dear Father, help me to do everything through Him who gives me strength."

2. "Dear Father, I want to do everything through Him who gives me strength. Please let Your strength flow through me."

3. "Papa, Abba, I'm not doing every thing through You. Please send Your strength to flow through me so I can live this verse."



"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) [No close quotes on this verse because the next verse is part of this message from Him and is powerful too!]

You could pray:
1. "Dear Father, I know You said You have plans to proper me and not to harm me, plans to give me a hope and a future. Please help me to stay in Your Will so I can better receive these blessings."

2. "Dear Father, thank You for making plans which prosper me and don't harm me. Thank you for my hope and for taking care of my future."

3. "Dear Father, Your plans for my prosperity are never to harm me. They give me hope and ensure my future."
These are just a few examples of how these verses can be prayed. Have you prayed these verses? Have you prayed other verses? Share your prayers with us. Talk to Him. He's always listening!
