What Are Some of the Most Powerful Prayers in the Bible?

Prayers from the New Testament

The Lord’s Prayer (Matthew 6:9-13): “‘Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be your name, Your kingdom come, Your will be done, On earth as it is in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, As we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one.

Prayer for Spiritual Wisdom (Ephesians 1:16-19): I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. 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. I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength.

Prayer for the Revelation of Christ (Ephesians 3:14-19): For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge — that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

Jesus’ Prayer for His Disciples (John 17: 1-26).

Prayer for Good health (3 John 2): Dear friend, I pray that you may enjoy good health and that all may go well with you, even as your soul is getting along well.
