When I approach the Lord in prayer, I relate to him in different ways.  The Bible has outline how we are to approach him in Matthew 6.  I also use his love poems – here are a few favorites

 

 

 

I pray that out of his glorious riches[God] 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 3:16-19 NIV

 

 

Jesus said, “Love you enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back.  Then your reward will be great, and you will be sons and daughters of the MOST HIGH.” 

 

Luke 6:35

 

 

Now you should also check out these:

Galatians 5:22

Psalm 57:3

I Corinthians 13:1-8

Isaiah 54:10

Romans8:39

 

IN YOUR SECRET PLACE PRAY 

 

 

AFTER THIS MANNER THEREFORE PRAY YE:

 

Our Father which art in heaven Hallowed be thy name, Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.  Give us this day our daily bread.  And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.  And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen. 

 

Matthew 6:9-13 KJV

 

 

  

God has said:  “I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people.” …..Since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God. 

 

2 Corinthians 6:16, 7:1
