prayers.<br />

We should ask God for spiritual things not just materialistic things. Spiritual things that we<br />

should ask for are blessings, love, faith, and <strong>the</strong> fruit <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> spirit as mentioned in Galatians.<br />

Applications:<br />

As an exercise in your prayers for this week, ask God to bless you and come up with a<br />

spiritual request.<br />

Have faith in God that He will always give us <strong>the</strong> best, and whenever we need anything,<br />

quickly seek God in prayer. Prayer is one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> most important tools in a Christian‘s life.<br />

Ask God to bless o<strong>the</strong>rs around you, for example, when you are leaving your friend, you<br />

should tell him/her, ―have a blessed day.‖ Find different ways to incorporate this in your<br />

everyday life.<br />
