PRAY FOR REVELATION OF JESUS’ BEAUTY THAT WE MIGHT WALK IN OUR CALLING AND DESTINY.
that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might.

PRAY THAT JESUS’ POWER AND PRESENCE BE MANIFEST IN AND THROUGH US IN A GREATER MEASURE.
I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.

PRAY FOR GOD’S LOVE TO ABOUND IN US (OUR CITY) BY THE KNOWLEDGE OF GOD, UNTO WALKING IN RIGHTEOUSNESS.
I pray that your love will overflow more and more, and that you will keep on growing in knowledge and understanding. For I want you to understand what really matters, so that you may live pure and blameless lives until the day of Christ’s return. May you always be filled with the fruit of your salvation—the righteous character produced in your life by Jesus Christ—for this will bring much glory and praise to God.

PRAY FOR OUR CITY (GOVERNMENT, LAW ENFORCEMENT, EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM, BUSINESS, CHURCH ETC) TO KNOW GOD’S WILL AND TO BE FRUITFUL IN MINISTRY AND STRENGTHENED BY INTIMACY WITH HIM.
We ask God to give you complete knowledge of his will and to give you spiritual wisdom and understanding. Then the way you live will always honor and please the Lord, and your lives will produce every kind of good fruit. All the while, you will grow as you learn to know God better and better. We also pray that you will be strengthened with all his glorious power so you will have all the endurance and patience you need. May you be filled with joy.

Then all of you can join together with one voice, giving praise and glory to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. ...

PRAY THAT THE WORD WOULD INCREASE ITS INFLUENCE (EFFECTIVENESS) AS GOD RELEASES HIS POWER.
Finally, dear brothers and sisters, we ask you to pray for us. Pray that the Lord’s message will spread rapidly and be honored wherever it goes, just as when it came to you. Pray, too, that we will be rescued from wicked and evil people, for not everyone is a believer. But the Lord is faithful; he will strengthen you and guard you from the evil one. And we are confident in the Lord that you are doing and will continue to do the things we commanded you. May the Lord lead your hearts into a full understanding and expression of the love of God and the patient endurance that comes from Christ.
