1.8.1. Scripture
1.8.1.1. And everyone who has this hope [resting] on Him cleanses (purifies) himself just as He is pure (chaste, undefiled, guiltless).
1.8.1.2. But in your hearts set Christ apart as holy [and acknowledge Him] as Lord. Always be ready to give a logical defense to anyone who asks you to account for the hope that is in you, but do it courteously and respectfully. (1Peter 3:15)
1.8.1.3. So brace up your minds; be sober (circumspect, morally alert); set your hope wholly and unchangeably on the grace (divine favor) that is coming to you when Jesus Christ (the Messiah) is revealed. (1Peter 1:13)
1.8.1.4. Now... Faith is the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses]. (Hebews 11:1)
1.8.1.5. This was so that, by two unchangeable things [His promise and His oath] in which it is impossible for God ever to prove false or deceive us, we who have fled [to Him] for refuge might have mighty indwelling strength and strong encouragement to grasp and hold fast the hope appointed for us and set before [us].
1.8.1.6. ...we do [strongly and earnestly] desire for each of you to show the same diligence and sincerity [all the way through] in realizing and enjoying the full assurance and development of [your] hope until the end,
1.8.1.7. And it is we who are [now members] of this house, if we hold fast and firm to the end our joyful and exultant confidence and sense of triumph in our hope [in Christ].
1.8.1.8. [Resting] in the hope of eternal life, [life] which the ever truthful God Who cannot deceive promised before the world or the ages of time began.
1.8.1.9. With a view to this we toil and strive, [yes and] suffer reproach, because we have [fixed our] hope on the living God, Who is the Savior (Preserver, Maintainer, Deliverer) of all men, especially of those who believe (trust in, rely on, and adhere to Him).
1.8.1.10. ...let us be sober and put on the breastplate (corslet) of faith and love and for a helmet the hope of salvation.
1.8.1.11. Recalling unceasingly before our God and Father your work energized by faith and service motivated by love and unwavering hope in [the return of] our Lord Jesus Christ (the Messiah).
1.8.1.12. Because of the hope [of experiencing what is] laid up (reserved and waiting) for you in heaven. Of this [hope] you heard in the past in the message of the truth of the Gospel,
1.8.1.13. This is in keeping with my own eager desire and persistent expectation and hope, that I shall not disgrace myself nor be put to shame in anything; but that with the utmost freedom of speech and unfailing courage
1.8.1.14. By having the eyes of your heart flooded with light, so that you can know and understand the hope to which He has called you, and how rich is His glorious inheritance in the saints (His set-apart ones),
1.8.1.15. ...through the [Holy] Spirit's [help], by faith anticipate and wait for the blessing and good for which our righteousness and right standing with God [our conformity to His will in purpose, thought, and action, causes us] to hope.
1.8.1.16. But I hope you will recognize and know that we are not disapproved on trial and rejected.
1.8.1.17. Since we have such [glorious] hope (such joyful and confident expectation), we speak very freely and openly and fearlessly.
1.8.1.18. If we who are [abiding] in Christ have hope only in this life and that is all, then we are of all people most miserable and to be pitied.
1.8.1.19. And so faith, hope, love abide [faith--conviction and belief respecting man's relation to God and divine things; hope--joyful and confident expectation of eternal salvation; love--true affection for God and man, growing out of God's love for and in us], these three; but the greatest of these is love. (1Corinthians 13:13)
1.8.1.20. May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope. (Romans 15:13)
1.8.1.21. Such hope never disappoints or deludes or shames us, for God's love has been poured out in our hearts through the Holy Spirit Who has been given to us. (Romans 5:5)
1.8.1.22. This is the reason therefore why I have begged to see you and to talk with you, since it is because of the Hope of Israel (the Messiah) that I am bound with this chain. (Acts 28:20)
1.8.1.23. And now I stand here on trial [to be judged on the ground] of the hope of that promise made to our forefathers by God. (Acts 26:6)

3. Trinity
3.1. Jesus
3.1.1. Of prayerful habits, of a prayerful spirit, given to long solitary communion with God, Jesus was above all else, a man of prayer.
3.1.2. prayer was the law of life. By it He lived. It was the inspiration of His toil, the source of His strength, the spring of His joy. With our Lord prayer was no sentimental episode, nor an afterthought, nor a pleasing, diverting prelude, nor an interlude, nor a parade or form. For Jesus, prayer was exacting, all-absorbing, paramount.
3.1.3. The crux of His earthly history, in New Testament terminology, is condensed to a single statement.
3.1.4. Our Lord is the pattern for all preachers, and, with Him, It was the call of a sweet duty to Him, the satisfying of a restless yearning, the preparation for heavy responsibilities, and the meeting of a vigorous need. This being so, the disciple must be as his Lord, the servant as his Master. As was the Lord Himself, so also must be those whom He has called to be His disciples. Our Lord Jesus Christ chose His twelve Apostles only after He had spent a night in praying; and we may rest assured that He sets the same high value on those He calls to His ministry, in this our own day and time. No feeble or secondary place was given to prayer in the ministry of Jesus. It comes first-emphatic, conspicuous, controlling.
3.1.4.1. Hebrews 5:7 Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears, unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared."
3.2. Holy Spirit
3.3. Father God, Creator of the Universe
3.3.1. God wants elect men -- men out of whom self and the world have gone by a severe crucifixion, by a bankruptcy which has so totally ruined self and the world that there is neither hope nor desire of recovery; men who by this insolvency and crucifixion have turned toward God perfect hearts.
3.3.2. A Loving God who wants to be with us
3.3.3. It's impossible to come into contact with all that God is without change taking place.
3.3.4. God says to not be anxious about anything
3.4. The Word of God
3.4.1. The Word of God is inseparably linked with prayer. The two are conjoined, twins from birth, and twins by life.
3.4.2. Scripture
3.4.2.1. 1 John 5:14-15
3.4.2.1.1. Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have hte petitions that we have asked of Him

4.1.2.8. Bear in Mind
4.1.2.8.1. Bear in Mind: Create an affirmation that summarizes each goal. Make sure they adhere to the following guidelines: 1) Start with the words “I am …” 2) State it in the present tense. 3) State it in the positive. 4) Keep it brief. 5) Make it specific and measurable. (How much…by when.) 6) Include an action word ending with –ing. 7) Include at least one dynamic feeling word. 8) Make affirmations for yourself, not others.
4.1.2.8.2. When repeating your affirmations, close your eyes afterwards, and see yourself looking out through your own eyes seeing what you would see if the desired outcome were actually happening right now. Hear the sounds you would be hearing, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, feel the feelings you would be feeling. Your feelings amplify the intensity of your request and accelerate the speed of its manifestation.

7. Hindrances
7.1. Worrying
7.1.1. Whenever I'm having trouble with worry, I set aside a specific time and place to get it all out. Then when the Devil comes back to me and tries to get me all upset about that situation again, I can refuse him. I'll say, "No, I won't take that back. I remember exactly when and where I was when I gave that to God. I told Him everything that was bothering me about that situation. Now it belongs to Him, and I won't touch it with worry."
7.1.2. As you do, you'll continue to pray powerful prayers, prayers unhindered by worry and care. Prayers that get results
7.2. Hurried devotions make weak faith, feeble convictions, questionable piety. To be little with God is to be little for God. To cut short the praying makes the whole religious character short, scrimp, niggardly, and slovenly. It takes good time for the full flow of God into the spirit. Short devotions cut the pipe of God's full flow. It takes time in the secret places to get the full revelation of God. Little time and hurry may mar the picture
8. Quotes
8.1. "Study not to be a fine preacher. Jerichos are blown down with rams' horns. Look simply unto Jesus for preaching food; and what is wanted will be given, and what is given will be blessed, whether it be a barley grain or a wheaten loaf, a crust or a crumb. Your mouth will be a flowing stream or a fountain sealed, according as your heart is. Avoid all controversy in preaching, talking, or writing; preach nothing down but the devil, and nothing up but Jesus Christ."
8.2. "One bright benison which private prayer brings down upon the ministry is an indescribable and inimitable something -- an unction from the Holy One... If the anointing which we bear come not from the Lord of hosts, we are deceivers, since only in prayer can we obtain it. Let us continue instant constant fervent in supplication. Let your fleece lie on the thrashing floor of supplication till it is wet with the dew of heaven."
8.3. "Speak for eternity. Above all things, cultivate your own spirit. A word spoken by you when your conscience is clear and your heart full of God's Spirit is worth ten thousand words spoken in unbelief and sin. Remember that God, and not man, must have the glory. If the veil of the world's machinery were lifted off, how much we would find is done in answer to the prayers of God's children."
8.4. "Give me one hundred preachers who fear nothing but sin and desire nothing but God, and I care not a straw whether they be clergymen or laymen; such alone will shake the gates of hell and set up the kingdom of heaven on earth. God does nothing but in answer to prayer."
8.5. "If some Christians that have been complaining of their ministers had said and acted less before men and had applied themselves with all their might to cry to God for their ministers -- had, as it were, risen and stormed heaven with their humble, fervent and incessant prayers for them -- they would have been much more in the way of success."
8.6. "This perpetual hurry of business and company ruins me in soul if not in body. More solitude and earlier hours! I suspect I have been allotting habitually too little time to religious exercises, as private devotion and religious meditation, Scripture-reading, etc. Hence I am lean and cold and hard. I had better allot two hours or an hour and a half daily. I have been keeping too late hours, and hence have had but a hurried half hour in a morning to myself. Surely the experience of all good men confirms the proposition that without a due measure of private devotions the soul will grow lean. But all may be done through prayer -- almighty prayer, I am ready to say -- and why not? For that it is almighty is only through the gracious ordination of the God of love and truth. O then, pray, pray, pray!"
8.7. "I judge that my prayer is more than the devil himself; if it were otherwise, Luther would have fared differently long before this. Yet men will not see and acknowledge the great wonders or miracles God works in my behalf. If I should neglect prayer but a single day, I should lose a great deal of the fire of faith."
