I know what it feels like to get "stuck" in the area of spiritual growth, and specifically in prayer. Here are some solid gold prayers that I've learned are great to get you out of a rut! The reason they're so great? Well, they are the Bible. These aren't my idea to pray...they originally came from the Holy Spirit, through people like David, Paul, and other heroes of the faith...and also other amazing followers of Jesus taught them to me. They're great to write out, memorize, and repeat till you get them in your heart and mind!! Some of these I pray daily, most of them I pray at least once a week.
Psalm 86:11--Teach me your ways, O Lord and I will walk in your truth; give me an undivided heart that I may fear your name.
Colossians 3:1-3--Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.
Ephesians 3:16-19--I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Ephesians 1:17-19--I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better. I pray also that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and his incomparably great power for us who believe...
