Over the weekend blog readers have asked questions about Friday’s post and the 400 Scripture passages I mentioned that our women’s prayer group uses each week. Several people have asked for the references, so I typed them into one document, planning to post them on this site. But before I do, a few caveats:
- Although we use the verses listed, all of Scripture is valuable and could be incorporated into prayer. By choosing the verses we did, we didn’t mean to diminish the importance of any others.
- The 20 topics we chose are just a small part of the help the Bible offers. For example, additional subjects could be grace, comfort, understanding, mercy, and many more.
- As we chose verses, no one translation was preferred over another. We just used the one that seemed to “say it best” at the time.
- Any biblical concordance, whether in the back of a hard-copy Bible or online, can provide verses relating to a chosen topic.
- In seeking scriptural counsel about the topic of healing, we found something very interesting. Other than descriptions of the healings Jesus did, healing is not widely addressed in the Bible. So our category of healing has only 8 passages listed.
- We decided to use verses from both the topic of redemption and salvation. Our redemption verses are those that can be applied to “redeeming a situation” while the salvation ones refer to “being saved from sin.”
- A handful of verses are re-used in several categories, and sometimes two references might be the same but that verse is divided into two parts (marked “a” and “b”) since it touches on two topics.
- Verses aren’t necessarily alphabetical by book or in order of appearance in the Bible. Sorry about that! At least the categories are alphabetical.
“So shall My word be that goes out from My mouth; it shall not return to Me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.” (Isaiah 55:11)
