From A Simple Book of Prayers

Loving Others Sincerely
(Intercession)

Lord, You have invited me to pray for the needs of others; and since You desire what is best for them, I take this opportunity to bring these requests to You.

Far be it from me that I should sin against the Lord by ceasing to pray for others.  (1 Samuel 12:23)

Oh, that they would always have such a heart to fear Me and keep all My commandments so that it might be well with them and with their children forever!  (Deuteronomy 5:29)

Take a moment to lift up the needs of your family and friends, and to offer up any other burdens for others that the Lord brings to mind.

May the Lord make me increase and abound in my love for believers and for unbelievers. (1 Thessalonians 3:12)

In obedience to the truth I will purify my soul for a sincere love of the brethren, and I will love others fervently from the heart. (1 Peter 1:22)

Lord, I thank You for Your righteousness and for Jesus’ sufferings on my behalf. I thank You that Your Word gives me stability, and I ask that I increase in my love for others.
