Here are some things to pray about from the passage in Philippians 2.
Verses 19-24:
- Help me to submit my future plans to You
- Enable me to live my life as an encouragement to the body of Christ
- Make me genuinely concerned about the welfare of others
- Convict me of where I selfishly seek my own interests
- Help me to instead seek the interests of Christ
- Make me more of a humble servant
- Equip me to be a trusted follower of Jesus
Verses 25-30:
- Fill me with Your wisdom as I make decisions
- Thank You for those who labor as my brothers and sisters for Your glory in the world
- Let me be willing to sacrifice in order to minister to the needs of others
- Increase my meekness in leadership
- Make me willing to do whatever task is needed in the body of Christ
- Have mercy on the sick
- Bring to my attention ways to rejoice with others
- Make me a peacemaker who decreases anxiety instead of increasing it
- Open my eyes to ways I can welcome and honor people who risk their lives to serve You
- Make me a more joyful giver
- Thank You for missionaries around the world who are risking their lives so that people can hear and believe the gospel
- Encourage and protect those missionaries
