Prayer
1 John 5:13-21
2.
These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, so that you may know that you have eternal life. This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us.
3.
And if we know that He hears us in whatever we ask, we know that we have the requests which we have asked from Him.
4.
If anyone sees his brother committing a sin not leading to death, he shall ask and God will for him give life to those who commit sin not leading to death. There is a sin leading to death; I do not say that he should make request for this.
5.
All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not leading to death. We know that no one who is born of God sins; but
6.
He who was born of God keeps him, and the evil one does not touch him. We know that we are of God, and that the whole world lies in the power of the evil one. And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding
7.
so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life. Little children, guard yourselves from idols.
8. Power prayer
Almost all American adults (94%) who have prayed at least once in the last three months
82% of praying adults most often pray silently and by themselves. American adults who pray with regularity do so with varying motivations, the most common being to offer “gratitude and thanksgiving” (62%). An equally popular prayer incentive is the “needs of their family and community” (61%), followed by “personal guidance in crisis” (49%).
9. Power prayer
Just less than half of praying adults (47%) most often direct prayers toward their own health and wellness. Further down the list is “confession and forgiveness” (43%), followed by “things I suddenly feel compelled or urged to pray about” (43%). Another common prayer is for “safety in daily tasks or travel” (41%).
