Communicating

(2Th 1:11-12) Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with

power: That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him,

according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.

I. Praying that God would be

SATISFIED in us

(2Th 1:11-12) Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure

of his goodness, and the work of faith with power: That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ

may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord

Jesus Christ.

(Col 1:9-10) 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 ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing,

being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;

(1Th 2:10-12) Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably

we behaved ourselves among you that believe: As ye know how we exhorted and

comforted and charged every one of you, as a father doth his children, That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you

unto his kingdom and glory.

(1Pe 1:15-16) But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in

all manner of conversation; Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I

am holy.

(Eph 4:1-3) I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of

the vocation wherewith ye are called, With all lowliness and meekness, with

longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; Endeavouring to keep the unity of the

Spirit in the bond of peace.

(1Th 4:1-4) Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk

and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus. For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication: That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification

and honour;

II. Praying for God’s SELF DESIRE to be

fulfilled in us.

(2Th 1:11-12) Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure

of his goodness, and the work of faith with power: That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ

may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord

Jesus Christ.

(Eph 5:15) See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise,

(Eph 5:16) Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.

(Eph 5:17) Wherefore be ye not unwise, but understanding what the will of the Lord is.

(1Jn 5:14) And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing

according to his will, he heareth us:

(Jos 7:10-11) And the LORD said unto Joshua, Get thee up; wherefore liest thou thus upon thy face? Israel hath

sinned, and they have also transgressed my covenant which I commanded them: for they have even taken of the

accursed thing, and have also stolen, and dissembled also, and they have put it even among their own stuff.

III. Praying for God’s STRENGTH be in

the work

(1Th 1:3) Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour

of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and

our Father;

(Eph 2:8-10) For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it

is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are his workmanship,

created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we

should walk in them.

(2Ti 3:5) Having a form of godliness, but denying the power

thereof: from such turn away.

(Eph 6:18-19) Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and

watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all

saints; And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my

mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,


SATISFIED in us


fulfilled in us.

IV. Praying for God to SHINE for our

lives

(Rev 4:11) Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy

pleasure they are and were created.

(Joh 12:23-28) And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except

a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he

that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant

be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour. Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour. Father, glorify thy name. Then came

there a voice from heaven, saying, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.

(Joh 13:31) Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is

glorified in him.

(Joh 13:32) If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify

him.

V. Praying for God’s SUFFICIENCY to be

enough

(2Co 12:7) And lest I should be exalted above measure through the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest I should be exalted

above measure.

(2Co 12:8) For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me.

(2Co 12:9) And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly

therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
