Praying to Walk in the Spirit

Father God, Your Word says the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace (Romans 8:6). You also tell me that we are controlled by the Spirit if the Spirit of God lives in us (Romans 8:9).  

Father, I now invite You to pour Your Holy Spirit into every part of my life, to continuously fill me (Ephesians 5:18), to counsel me (John 16:7), to teach me (John 14:26), to lead me (Galatians 5:18), to guide me in all truth and to show me things to come (John 16:13), to empower me to witness (Acts 1:8), to quicken me (Romans 8:11), to help me in prayer (Romans 8:26), and to produce His fruit in my life (Galatians 5:22-23).  Father, You have poured out Your Spirit upon all flesh (Acts 2:17-18).  Please, I beg You, fill me now to overflowing so Your love will continually pour into my heart by the Holy Spirit which You have given me (Romans 5:5), and His joy may overflow through me to others (1 Thessalonians 1:6).

This is my prayer, Heavenly Father: That my love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so I may be able to discern what is best for any situation, and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ’s return, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Christ Jesus – to Your glory and praise, my loving God (Philippians 1:9-11).

You have made known to me the paths of life; You will fill me with joy in Your presence (Acts 2:28). May the God of hope fill me with all joy and peace as I trust in Him, so I may overflow to bless others with hope by the power of His Holy Spirit (Romans 15:13). God, You have filled my hunger with good things (Luke 1:53), for You satisfy all the thirsty and fill all the hungry with good things (Psalm 107:9). Blessed are those You choose and bring near to live in Your courts. We are filled with the good things of Your house, of Your holy temple (Psalm 65:4).

Thank You for Your grace which enables me to walk in the Spirit.  Your grace and Your Spirit keep me from wanting to gratify my sinful nature (Galatians 5:16).  Help me to yield myself more and more to the power of Your Sprit, Father, because I know the law of the spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set me free from the law of sin and death (Romans 8:1-2).  Help me to crucify my flesh, O Lord, with all its affections and lusts, its passions and desires so I can live by and keep in step with Your Spirit at all times (Galatians 5:24-25).  I love You, Father, and I know as Your Holy Spirit fills me, He will lead me to walk in the ways of Your love (Ephesians 5:2).
