"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works." 2 Timothy 3:16-17
Look at all of the prayers in the New Testament and keep this verse in mind when you read them. These prayers are not just wish lists of the writers; they are the inspired Words of our Father! You read these prayers with that understanding of the Truth and watch the power of God move in your life! The Word of our Father makes us perfect, and the Word allows God to thoroughly furnish us to be used for all good works! Those 14 Words alone in 2 Timothy 3:17 can be preached on for a couple of books or so!
“For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye might be filled with the knowledge of His will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding, That you might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God; Strengthened with all might, according to His glorious power, unto all patience and longsuffering with joyfulness.” Colossians 1:9-11
This prayer is the Divine inspiration of our Father. It’s what He wants for us and it’s what He has provided for us! Just look at the Words all, worthy, knowledge, joy, might, strength, wisdom, understanding, and power! These are the things that our Father has provided for us. Every bit as much as the prayer that Jesus prayed in John 17 is the Word of God, so is this prayer of Paul’s! So go and read the prayers at the beginning of the Books and Jesus will Author and Finish the faith within you to accept and walk in the Truth of them, to actually live and experience them. It’s awesome power!
Also, if you are dealing with someone who just won't latch on to the power of God, whether it is salvation, or any other issue within their life, the best way to serve them is by using the Word of God. Speak scripture to them, show them where it is at, pray it for them, pray it with them, read it with them, email them, or write them, whatever our Father leads you to do. So many times we try to speak of a similar situation in our own life to comfort or aid a person, but the Word is profitable for the perfecting of the Saints. People sometimes feel that their situation is far worse than yours was and you could never understand or even compare your life with their misery. But the Word of God has life and the Word of God is what has made us perfect and the Word has thoroughly prepared us for instruction in righteousness. It does not matter if we say it with chapter and verse, or just say it, the Word will not fall void to the earth, it will accomplish what our Father has intended for it to do. We may see it, or we may not. We may plant a seed that another person waters, and than another harvests, but God has made it grow. And Jesus has led us all in the path of being used to further the Kingdom of God!
All scripture is given by Divine inspiration. We have been honored by God Himself to become one with it. The sower sows the Word, some may fall on stony ground, some in the thorns, some in shallow soil, and some will fall in good ground and it will produce a crop of 30, 60, or 100 fold! With the Word we are perfectly and thoroughly equipped to be used by God to do all good works!
