Becomes Willing
He will NOT force us to walk in any way we are unwilling to go.
Therefore, He can only Knock and Plead until the Believer Becomes Willing.
He May Fulfill His Will
Striving is NOT aimed against God as though to compel Him to change His Will to suit our pleasure, but in reality is Against All that is opposed to God so that He May Fulfill His Will.
In view of this, we are unable to Pray as Fellow-Workers of God unless we Really Know what His Will is.
Giving Up Self-Righteousness
Next to the Parting with unrighteousness, is the Giving up of self-righteousness.
In me, that is, in my flesh, dwelleth no good thing.
Waiting for the Breathing of the Holy Spirit as ALONE ABLE to Work in us what is Acceptable in God’s Sight.
Take Prayer Seriously
Through all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the Spirit, and in this, watching in all perseverance and supplication for all the holy ones.
Take Prayer Seriously!
If You Abide in Me
If you Abide in Me.
His Merit has Won for me the Answer to Every Prayer, if I Abide in Him.
Accomplish His Work
God will only use the Might and Power of the Holy Spirit to Accomplish His Work.
And This Might and Power are Manifested Through the foolish and the weak.

1 CORINTHIANS 1.26-29
for see your calling, brothers, that not many [are] wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble; but God chose the foolish things of the world that He may put the wise to shame; and God chose the weak things of the world that He may put the strong to shame; and God chose the base things of the world, and the things despised, and the things that are not, that He may make useless the things that are—that no flesh may glory before Him;
Not As I Will
He was bound that we might Go Free.
He was made sin that we might become the Righteousness of God.
He died that we might Live.
He bore God’s curse that God’s Blessing might be ours.
He endured not having His Prayer Answered that our Prayers might be Answered.
He Said, Not as I will, that He might Say to us, If you Remain in Me, Ask whatever you wish, and it will be Given you.
Surrendered
Every sin Surrendered is Gain Indeed – Room for the Inflowing of the Presence and the Love of Christ.
