This article was written five years ago but is still good. it talks about 5 prayers that teach us how to talk to God.
I would add these comments in Colossians 1:9-12 where Paul tells the Colossian church what he is praying for them
9 "For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives,[e] 10 so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, 12 and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you[f] to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light."
He's praying for them to have knowledge of His will, wisdom and understanding, to live a life worthy of the Lord and to please Him, bearing fruit. strengthened with all power that they might have endurance and patience. We could all use people in our lives praying that kind of prayer for us.
