The Spirit Helps You Pray
The Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.—Romans 8:26 (NIV)
And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.—John 14:13-14 (NIV)
When you pray in Jesus’ name, center your awareness on Him and do your best to align your will with His. Think of the prayer as if it is coming from God and shape your petition so that you are praying for His will and not your own.
Heavenly Father, align my desires with Your will and let Your will be done through me.

But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.—Matthew 5:44 (NIV)
