What Should We Pray For? One way to answer this question is to look at what the early church prayed for. Here is a list gathered from the New Testament. It can guide you in how you pray.

But over time it would be good if our prayers had the breadth and depth of the New Testament prayers. They called on God to exalt his name in the world. Pray then like this: Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name (Matthew 6:9). They called on God to extend his kingdom in the world. Thy kingdom come. They called on God that the gospel would run and triumph.
