3. Pray for a rooting out of false doctrine—the true cause of division among the people of God—and that faithful ministers would be sought out instead. (Titus 1.6-16)

7. Pray for hearts of forgiveness rather than accusation, patience rather than a rush to discipline, loving correction wise receiving of correction, and care rather than strife and warring among us, regulating our desires concerning self and promoting the interests of Christ and His Kingdom. (James 4.1-17)
8. Pray for love for Christ first among His people, and then a love “in Christ” for His people, His  church, His truth, His doctrine, and hatred of every false way which would divide His Kingdom. (Psalm 119.104, 128; Matthew 22.34-40)
9. Pray for an uncompromising love of the truth, so that the unity of the Church would be based upon the right commitment to the Word of God. (Romans 12.9)
