Studies on Prayer: Vol. 2

DAY 6 OF 9

The prophet Isaiah was speaking about Jesus when he said, “The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him—the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the Lord.” (Isaiah 11:2). The same Holy Spirit that rested on Jesus, indwells Christians. When we pray, led by the Spirit, we can pray with Wisdom and Understanding because of His Holy Counsel. We can pray with Power and Might because the Holy Spirit has Divine Knowledge. Therefore, every prayer offered to God should be led by His Holy Spirit.

1. Romans 8, starts with the word “Therefore,” which many theologians believe is referring to chapters 3–7. Those chapters discuss the frustrations and limits of trying to live according to the Old Covenant Law, and the freedoms that were gained through the New Covenant Promises. Paul’s statement in 8:1–2 is considered one of the best descriptions of the New Covenant ushered in by Christ. Describe the Promised Relationship between God and Christians. (verses 1–2)

2. How does a person today meet God’s “Righteous Requirement”?

3. Why are those who belong to Christ assured of Salvation?

4. What is our Promised Hope and how should that impact our prayers?

"In prayer, it is better to have a heart without words than words without a heart." —John Bunyon
