the Precept (Principle)
John 15:4a
Abide in Me [Christ].
the Promise (from God)
John 15:7
If ye abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
our Prayer (to God)
Ephesians 3:17a
That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith.
Take each Precept and Promise and Prayer and pray them back to the Lord as one prayer
FREE prayer helps are always available on our Prayer-Basics-Page
NOTE: The key to this is found in His words abiding in us, NOT us in His word. To be fair though, you must read and know His word so it abides in you.
TURNING THE ABOVE DAY’S VERSES INTO A PRAYER
Thank You Lord for making salvation so simple a choice. You tell us that when we pray Your will, You give us our request, and we know that You are not willing that any should perish (1 Timothy 2:4) and so You answer our prayer when we ask in faith, trusting You to be our Savior, thru the shed blood of Christ, on the cross…
NOTE: Another way to have prayed these passages would have been to pray about all that we have in Christ, by faith, as we abide in Him, and He in us.
