What should I pray?

In the service we used a prayer I adapted from Philippians 1:9-11. Several of you have asked me for it, so here it is:

Father, I pray that __________’s love will grow and overflow to others. I ask that you will give ____________ understanding and discernment. Help ____________ to make the best choices and have right priorities, so that ____________ increase in purity and righteousness. Father, fill ___________ with the fruit of the Spirit of Christ, to bring you glory and praise. Adapted from Phil 1:9-11

As you pray this prayer for others, you may want to consider some other prayers that you can also make your own for those you pray for. Take a prayerful look at Ephesians 1:16-20, Ephesians 3:16-19, and Colossians 1:9-12.
