4. Prayer of Honesty (Ps. 15:1-2, Ps. 139:23-24)<br />
“Lord, what is going on in my heart right now with You, with others, with my life, my<br />
situations Search me, O God, and know my heart. Open my heart to you today in truth, lest<br />
I deceive myself.”<br />
With this prayer, we open to God and to ourselves what is truly going on in our hearts in order<br />
for truth-telling to take place in our relationships and our life in general. It protects us from<br />
self-deception, arrogance, and obliviousness. It also points to way to God’s loving work in the<br />
realities of my life.<br />
5. Prayer of Discernment (Eccles. 7:13-14, Phil. 2:12-13)<br />
“Lord, what are you doing and what is it that you want me to become<br />
and do if I am to do your will”<br />
In this prayer, we learn to look for what the Spirit is doing in us so that we can cooperate with it. We<br />
discern what work God is doing in us already through trials, longings, his Word, etc., and we ask, what<br />
our parts are in opening to His loving work in our lives<br />
