Prayers

I wonder if you ever take time to pray for your own spiritual growth.  It is a discipline I feel is essential to grow spiritually.  God honors His word and He bestows blessings upon us as we seek Him. You can be confident He will answer when we take His word and ask him to teach, change, and make us into His image.
This is the first prayer I remember praying for myself.  God has answered and He continues to work these truths out in my life.  Over the next couple of days, I will list specific Scripture to begin praying for your own spiritual growth and the growth of others. So check back often.

Teach me your decrees, O Lord;
      I will keep them to the end.
 34 Give me understanding and I will obey your instructions;
      I will put them into practice with all my heart.
 35 Make me walk along the path of your commands,
      for that is where my happiness is found.
 36 Give me an eagerness for your laws
      rather than a love for money!
 37 Turn my eyes from worthless things,
      and give me life through your word.
 38 Reassure me of your promise,
      made to those who fear you.
 39 Help me abandon my shameful ways;
      for your regulations are good.
 40 I long to obey your commandments!
      Renew my life with your goodness
Psalm 119:33-40
