John 17: “I do not pray for the world but for them which thou has given me, for they are thine.” How can we pray effectively? Pray according to the will of God. Pray with the promises of God Pray for people in depth Ephesians 1:16-18 I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers, 17 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, 18 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, Ephesians 2:5 even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved— HOW SHALL WE PRAY FOR BELIEVERS Pray that believers may see themselves as seated with Christ above It means authority Any believer who sees himself seated with Christ at the right hand of God the Father is never going to say, “I’m hopeless. Hebrews 7:25 “He is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.” Pray for believers that they might be able to walk in this world. Ephesians 4:1 I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, Ephesians 3:14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, Pray that they Might Stand. Eph 6: 10-18 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. 14 Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 16 In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; 17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, 18 praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication
