Praying for Others

I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better.
Ephesians 1:17

And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people.
Ephesians 6:18

We tend to pray for ourselves all the time. While it is not bad to ask God for things (we are commanded to afterall), we should also show concern for the spiritual well-being of our brothers and sisters in Christ. We should pray for their growth, sanctification, and perseverance. We are all part of one Body. We are all children of God. Let us pray and be thankful for one another.
