Searching for Prayers on Bible Sections Help

Liam

Hello all, 

I'm trying to find the most effective way to search my library for prayers for different portions of scripture. So far I have been able to use these search parameters to find prayers: (God OR Lord OR Father OR Jesus OR Spirit) WITHIN 1 WORD (you OR thou).

This works ok for finding hidden prayers within resources I own. What I want to do however is to go one step further and somehow send this search parameter into the cited by tool. In this way, for example, I could find all the prayers in my library that mention say Genesis 1. 

Does anyone have any suggestions for doing this?

Thanks!

Keep Smiling 4 Jesus :)

Noticed a number of false positives along with Lord's Prayer in Matthew 6 not being found. One search idea is Preaching Themes about Prayer:

{Section <PreachingTheme Prayer: Intercession>} OR {Section <PreachingTheme Prayer: Petition>} OR {Section <PreachingTheme Prayer>}

Logos has a resource => An Exposition on Prayer in the Bible

One idea is searching for word(s) within a Bible Milestone: e.g. prayer WITHIN Genesis

prayer WITHIN {Milestone <Ge>}

For example, Calvin's commentary on Genesis mentions prayer in Genesis 4:15 and Genesis 9:3
