We are to pray for the lost, We are to pray for those who are sick. \u00a0We are to pray for wisdom, We are to pray for healing of body and relationships. We are to pray for God&#8217;s leading. \u00a0We are to pray that our eyes, ears, and heart will be open to this leading. \u00a0We are to pray for our leaders. We are to pray for one another. \u00a0We are to pray to grow and understand our dependance on God in our life. Do not limit what you bring before God &#8211; He can do more than we ask and much more than we can imagine &#8211; there is no room for doubting what God can do<\/p>\n<p>Matthew 21:20<br \/>\nWhen the disciples saw it, they marveled, saying, \u201cHow did the fig tree wither at once?\u201d And Jesus answered them, \u201cTruly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what has been done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, \u2018Be taken up and thrown into the sea,\u2019 it will happen. <strong>And whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>1 Corinthians 13:2<br \/>\nAnd if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. <strong>If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.<\/strong><br \/>\nLove is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.<br \/>\nLove never ends<\/p>\n<p>James 1:5<br \/>\n<strong>If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God,<\/strong> who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.
