Day 7 of 31 Days of Prayer Pray for Love and Against Hindrances

Lord of Love, You are the one Source of perfect unfailing Love. Love that is sacrificial, impartial and permanent!  Work in me a growing love and affection fro all people, and especially for all believers-a love like Yours merciful.  

Show me if there's anything in my heart that would keep me from praying with Your love.  Do You see grievances there?  Anger?  An unforgiving spirit?  Resentment toward anyone in my past, or in my present?  Envy, jealousy?  Critical attitudes?  Selfishness or pride?  Anything else that hinders love?Show me, And give me grace and repent and ask You to forgive m.  Help me take the initiative in restoring any broken or damages relationships with others in my family, at work, or at my church.

May the spirit flood my heart with Your Love, washing away any unloving attitudes.  Then may Your pure, warm love motivate me as I pray and flow through me toward every person my life touches day by day.  I plead with You for this!  And I believe You will do it.  and Lord, do these same things for all who partner with You in prayer, whenever they may be.
