My flesh longs for you,
in a dry and weary land, where there is no water.

3 ‘Call to me, and I will answer you, and will show you great and difficult things, which you don’t know.’
2 You lust, and don’t have. You murder and covet, and can’t obtain. You fight and make war. You don’t have, because you don’t ask.
1 I love the LORD, because he listens to my voice,
and my cries for mercy.
2 Because he has turned his ear to me,
therefore I will call on him as long as I live.
6 In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God. 7 And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your thoughts in Christ Jesus.
7 There is no one who calls on your name,
who stirs himself up to take hold of you;

and have consumed us by means of our iniquities.

‘Our Father in heaven,
may your name be kept holy.
May your Kingdom come.
May your will be done on earth, as it is in heaven.

for we ourselves also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.
Bring us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.’"

Neither has he hidden his face from him;
but when he cried to him, he heard.

and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.

Pour out your heart before him.
God is a refuge for us. Selah.
5 But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. 6 But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed. 7 For that man shouldn’t think that he will receive anything from the Lord. 8 He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
19 Arise, cry out in the night,
at the beginning of the watches!
Pour out your heart like water before the face of the Lord.
Lift up your hands towards him for the life of your young children,
who faint for hunger at the head of every street.
7 If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you.

Don’t fret because of him who prospers in his way,
because of the man who makes wicked plots happen.
17 Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress.
He will hear my voice.
20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them."
7 "Ask, and it will be given you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened for you.

5 "When you pray, you shall not be as the hypocrites, for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen by men. Most certainly, I tell you, they have received their reward.
10 With my whole heart I have sought you.
Don’t let me wander from your commandments.
18 If I cherished sin in my heart,
the Lord wouldn’t have listened.
24 Therefore I tell you, all things whatever you pray and ask for, believe that you have received them, and you shall have them.

9 "I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.
22 so whatever we ask, we receive from him, because we keep his commandments and do the things that are pleasing in his sight.
20 Yet, looking to the promise of God, he didn’t waver through unbelief, but grew strong through faith, giving glory to God, 21 and being fully assured that what he had promised, he was also able to perform.
26 In the same way, the Spirit also helps our weaknesses, for we don’t know how to pray as we ought. But the Spirit himself makes intercession for us with groanings which can’t be uttered. 27 He who searches the hearts knows what is on the Spirit’s mind, because he makes intercession for the saints according to God.

6 In my distress I called on the LORD,
and cried to my God.
He heard my voice out of his temple.
My cry before him came into his ears.
27 "But I tell you who hear: love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, and pray for those who mistreat you.
12 You shall call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I will listen to you.
13 You shall seek me and find me, when you search for me with all your heart.
15 And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
18 If I cherished sin in my heart,
the Lord wouldn’t have listened.
19 But most certainly, God has listened.
He has heard the voice of my prayer.
11 If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!
31 The Lord said, "Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have all of you, that he might sift you as wheat, 32 but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers."
40 Let us search and try our ways,
and turn again to the LORD.
41 Let’s lift up our heart with our hands to God in the heavens.
6 Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.
39 He went forward a little, fell on his face, and prayed, saying, "My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not what I desire, but what you desire."
9 Pray like this:
"‘Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy.
10 Let your Kingdom come.
Let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 Forgive us our debts,
as we also forgive our debtors.
13 Bring us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.
For yours is the Kingdom, the power, and the glory forever. Amen.’
11 The LORD, the Holy One of Israel
and his Maker says:
"You ask me about the things that are to come, concerning my sons,
and you command me concerning the work of my hands!
9 He who turns away his ear from hearing the law,
even his prayer is an abomination.
12 "Yet even now," says the LORD, "turn to me with all your heart,
and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning."
7 In praying, don’t use vain repetitions as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking.

18 The LORD is near to all those who call on him,
to all who call on him in truth.
14 All these with one accord continued steadfastly in prayer and supplication, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
17 He has responded to the prayer of the destitute,
and has not despised their prayer.
44 Nevertheless he regarded their distress,
when he heard their cry.
45 He remembered for them his covenant,
and repented according to the multitude of his loving kindnesses.
6 In nothing be anxious, but in everything, by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.
16 Always rejoice. 17 Pray without ceasing. 18 In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus towards you.
3 But know that the LORD has set apart for himself him who is godly;
The LORD will hear when I call to him.
6 But you, when you pray, enter into your inner room, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly.
14 This is the boldness which we have towards him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us. 15 And if we know that he listens to us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions which we have asked of him.
1 He also spoke a parable to them that they must always pray and not give up, 2 saying, "There was a judge in a certain city who didn’t fear God and didn’t respect man. 3 A widow was in that city, and she often came to him, saying, ‘Defend me from my adversary!’ 4 He wouldn’t for a while; but afterward he said to himself, ‘Though I neither fear God nor respect man, 5 yet because this widow bothers me, I will defend her, or else she will wear me out by her continual coming.’"
6 The Lord said, "Listen to what the unrighteous judge says. 7 Won’t God avenge his chosen ones who are crying out to him day and night, and yet he exercises patience with them? 8 I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?"
7 But the end of all things is near. Therefore be of sound mind, self-controlled, and sober in prayer.
25 Therefore he is also able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, seeing that he lives forever to make intercession for them.
6 Seek the LORD while he may be found.
Call on him while he is near.
7 In praying, don’t use vain repetitions as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking. 8 Therefore don’t be like them, for your Father knows what things you need before you ask him.
6 But you, when you pray, enter into your inner room, and having shut your door, pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you openly. 7 In praying, don’t use vain repetitions as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their much speaking.
6 But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed. 7 For that man shouldn’t think that he will receive anything from the Lord.

16 You didn’t choose me, but I chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
8 Concerning this thing, I begged the Lord three times that it might depart from me. 9 He has said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me.
15 Call on me in the day of trouble.
I will deliver you, and you will honour me."
19 My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.
12 rejoicing in hope, enduring in troubles, continuing steadfastly in prayer,
5 For the waves of death surrounded me.
The floods of ungodliness made me afraid.
6 The cords of Sheol were around me.
The snares of death caught me.
7 In my distress, I called on the LORD.
Yes, I called to my God.
He heard my voice out of his temple.
My cry came into his ears.
17 I cried to him with my mouth.
He was extolled with my tongue.
21 But this kind doesn’t go out except by prayer and fasting."
18 Most certainly I tell you, whatever things you bind on earth will have been bound in heaven, and whatever things you release on earth will have been released in heaven.
3 LORD, in the morning you will hear my voice.
In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and will watch expectantly.
