About this ebook
Every soul that comes to Jesus in repentance and faith will be given the Holy Spirit to guide you into the truth. He will explain how to pray, he will act as your conscience until you pass from this life. God expects that studying the Bible, goes from God to you. You respond to God, by praying every day.
My book is taken from the prayers in the Bible, and is a study book. You can look through it and add your own prayers. The reason is that all of the Bible contain prayers, many prayers.
I think you would do well to study them.

Summary
You could read this book and see how the many people, both Israelites, Christians and the church kept on praying. They really needed God’s help. How their situations were different. The outside scenes kept changing as they went through their lives and the pressures they encountered contrasted with what they were familiar with. They suffered much and they went through trials, yet God commended them for all their faith.
You could easily join in with them as they journeyed through the many problems that they might have discovered and come across. But I have prepared this book as a study book.
Take for example, the prayer of Stephen.
Why did he say, Hold not this sin against them?
He didn’t say, "I am struck down, I am in pain.
The stones and rocks hurt me."
He didn’t say, Lord help me, Lord protect me, Lord take my life from me.
He was badly hurt and was bruised; he was going to die, surrounded on all sides. The stones or rocks would be heavy and they would break his bones; he would crumple and slump to the floor.
He recognised that the Lord would support him, but he had one thing on his mind, Hold not this sin against them.
When he was hauled to the Sanhedrin, all that saw him thought that his face was like the face of an angel. Then the high priest asked him, Are these charges true?
He didn’t say, No
, he didn’t say, Wait.
But he replied, Listen to me
and in Acts 7, a long chapter, he pointed out where they came from. Has not my hand made all these things?
says the Lord. It is not the sort of question that the high priest wanted. After that, he went on, You stiff necked people…you who have betrayed and murdered Jesus…but have not obeyed the law.
He was a man full of faith and had wisdom. He knew that the whole Sanhedrin would attack him, but he didn’t care. He had no thought of his welfare. He resigned to what was true. He had the Holy Spirit with-in him.
What about us?
What things do we do?
What changes might happen?
Although you are ready and prepared against the mob and crowd, all the elders and the teachers of the law might argue against what the Lord wanted us to do. One man against the rulers in the Sanhedrin.
Did he know what might have taken place?
Did he know the outcome of the persecution that would follow?
Did he understand that all the people would disperse?
Did he recognise the murderous activity of the Sanhedrin?
If you are to take the necessary steps to do what God wants you to do, you might not survive this world. Stoning is a horrible way to die. But you will receive what God has in mind for you. It’s only a short while we are here, but in heaven, that is what Jesus meant by carrying the cross.
Stephen said, Was there ever a prophet your fathers did not persecute? They even killed those who predicted the coming of the Righteous One?
The prayer of Stephen is an example of what you can discover for each prayer. If you follow through the book, you can discover how many prayers the book of the Bible holds, and there are more prayers in the Old Testament rather than the New.
You will undoubtedly enrich your faith, and keep on praying.
Section 1 - Prayers in the Old Testament
Adam and Eve’s Prayer
Genesis ch.2 v9 and ch.3 v8-13
Adam and Eve were created by God to be the first individuals in the Bible. But when Adam and Eve sinned and took the fruit from the tree of knowledge of good and evil and they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day.
The Lord God called to the man, Where are you?
Adam said
• "He heard God was in the garden.
• I was afraid because I was naked.
• So I hid."
God said, Have you eaten from the tree from which I commanded you not to eat?
Adam replied
• "The woman you put here with me.
• She gave me some fruit from the tree, and
• I ate it."
God said to the woman, What is this that you have done?
Eve said
• "The serpent was dishonest with me, and
• I ate the fruit."
The Lord God said to the serpent, Because you have done this you are cursed above all the animals.
To Eve he said, Your passion will be for your husband and he will rule over you.
To Adam he said, Cursed is the ground because of you.
Cain’s Prayer
Genesis ch.4 v2-8
Cain and Abel sons of Adam and Eve. In the course of time, Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil and Abel brought an offering of a sheep. But God looked with favour on Abel and didn’t respond to Cain’s offering.
While they were in a field later, Cain attacked his brother and killed him. The Lord said to Cain, Where is Abel? What have you done?
God said
"You are under a curse and driven from the ground.
When you work the ground it will no longer yield its crops to you."
Cain said
• "My punishment is more than I can carry.
• Today you are forcing me from the ground.
• I will be hidden from your company.
• I will be an unruly wanderer on the earth.
• Whoever seeks and finds me will kill me."
The Lord said to him. I will put a warning sign on you so that no one will kill you. Cain then went out from the presence of the Lord and he lived in the land of Nod, east of Eden.
Noah’s Prayer
Genesis ch.6 v9 - ch.7 v16 and 2 Peter ch.3 v4-6
Noah was a righteous man, blameless among the people of his time and he walked with God. Now the earth was corrupt in God’s sight and was full of violence, and man was only interested doing evil things.
God said
"How twisted the earth has become.
For all the people are depraved and evil.
I am going to put a stop to all people.
For the earth is filled with violence.
Make yourself an ark of cypress wood."
The ark was prepared
• Noah did everything to build an ark.
• Exactly as God had instructed him.
• You are to bring into the ark two of every kind of animal.
God said
"All of your whole family.
I have found you righteous, and
Noah was 600 years old."
The springs of the great deep were opened and the flood swept across the land. Rain fell on the earth for forty days and nights. Every living being on the face of the earth was wiped out.
Abraham’s Prayer
Genesis ch.15 v1-6; ch.17 v1-4; ch.18 v9-15; ch.21 v1-3
The word of the Lord came to Abraham in a vision, but he didn’t have any sons or daughters and it worried him. The years passed and he and his wife Sarah were elderly.
God said, "Count the stars in the sky
Look up at the sky and count the stars.
If indeed you can number them.
So shall your children be."
He believed God and didn’t doubt his word
• Abraham believed the Lord, and
• He trusted in God.
The Lord came to Abraham near the great trees. While he was sitting at the entrance to his tent. God said, I will surely return to you about this time next year, and your wife will have a son.
Now the Lord was gracious to Sarah and as God had said, he bore a son in his old age, at the very time God promised him.
Prayer of Abraham’s Chief Servant
Genesis ch.24 v1-2; v12-22
Abraham said to his chief servant, You would get for my son Isaac a wife not among the Canaanites where I live but among my relatives. And the servant left and he was on his camel.
The chief servant prayed
• "God of my master Abraham.
• Give me success this day.
• I am standing by this spring of water.
• I might say to a girl coming out to draw water.
• Please give me a drink.
• She says, ‘Drink, and I will water your camels also.’
• By this I will know that you have selected a woman for Isaac."
Before he had finished praying, Rebekah came out with her jar on her shoulders. The girl was very beautiful and she went down to the spring, filled the jar and came up to meet the servant.
Without saying a word, the man watched her closely to learn whether the Lord had made his travel successful.
Isaac’s Prayer
Genesis ch.25 v21-23
Isaac was forty years old when he married Rebekah, but he didn’t have any children.
So Isaac prayed the Lord
• "He prayed on behalf of his wife.
• Because she was barren."
The Lord answered his prayer, and his wife became pregnant. The babies fought within her, so she said, Why is this happening to me? So Rebekah prayed to the Lord.
So God said to her
"Two nations are in your womb.
One people will be stronger
