="Praying in the Holy Spirit."=--JUDE 20.
Our Lord gave His disciples on His resurrection day the Holy Spirit to enable them to wait for the full outpouring on the day of Pentecost. It is only in the power of the Spirit already in us, acknowledged and yielded to, that we can pray for His fuller manifestation. Say to the Father, it is the Spirit of His Son in you is urging you to plead His promise.

THIRD DAY
WHAT TO PRAY.--For all Saints
="With all prayer and supplication praying at all seasons, and watching thereunto in all perseverance and supplication for all saints."=--EPH. vi. 18.
Every member of a body is interested in the welfare of the whole, and exists to help and complete the others. Believers are one body, and ought to pray, not so much for the welfare of their own church or society, but, first of all, for all saints. This large, unselfish love is the proof that Christ's Spirit and Love is teaching them to pray.
Pray first for all and then for the believers around you.
HOW TO PRAY.--In the Love of the Spirit
="By this shall all men know that ye are My disciples, if ye have love one to another."=--JOHN xiii. 35.
="I pray that they all may be one, that the world may believe that Thou didst send Me."=--JOHN xvii. 21.
="I beseech you, brethren, by the love of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to G.o.d for me."=--ROM. xv. 30.
="Above all things being fervent in your love among yourselves."=--1 PET. iv. 8.
If we are to pray we must love. Let us say to G.o.d we do love all His saints; let us say we love specially every child of His we know. Let us pray with fervent love, in the love of the Spirit.

FOURTH DAY
WHAT TO PRAY,--For the Spirit of Holiness
G.o.d is the Holy One. His people is a holy people. He speaks: I am holy: I am the Lord which make you holy. Christ prayed: Sanctify them. Make them holy through =Thy Truth=. Paul prayed: "G.o.d establish your hearts unblamable in holiness." "G.o.d sanctify you wholly!"
Pray for all saints--G.o.d's holy ones--throughout the Church, that the Spirit of holiness may rule them. Specially for new converts. For the saints in your own neighbourhood or congregation. For any you are specially interested in. Think of their special need, weakness, or sin, and pray that G.o.d may make them holy.
HOW TO PRAY.--Trusting in G.o.d's Omnipotence
The things that are impossible with men are possible with G.o.d. When we think of the great things we ask for, of how little likelihood there is of their coming, of our own insignificance. Prayer is not only wishing, or asking, but believing and accepting. Be still before G.o.d and ask Him to give you to know Him as the Almighty One, and leave your pet.i.tions with Him who doeth wonders.
