Ephesians 6:18

With all prayer and petition pray (with specific requests) at all times (on every occasion and in every season) in the Spirit, and with this in view, stay alert with all perseverance and petition (interceding in prayer) for all God’s people.

Sometimes we don’t know what to pray or how to pray for what we need for ourselves or others. That is why praying in the Spirit opens the door for God to move for us. God knows what we need, and praying in the Spirit clears a path for God to work on our behalf.
