Answer: Five.
1. "Our Lord, You did not create this aimlessly; exalted are You [above such a thing];
then protect us from the punishment of the Fire" [3:191]
رَبَّنَا مَا خَلَقْتَ هَـٰذَا بَـٰطِلًۭا سُبْحَـٰنَكَ فَقِنَا عَذَابَ ٱلنَّارِ ○
2. "Our Lord, indeed whoever You admit to the Fire - You have disgraced him, and for the wrongdoers there are no helpers" [3:192].
رَبَّنَاۤ اِنَّكَ مَنْ تُدْخِلِ النَّارَ فَقَدْ اَخْزَيْتَهٗ وَمَا لِلظّٰلِمِيْنَ مِنْ اَنْصَارٍ ○
3. Our Lord, indeed we have heard a caller [i.e., Prophet Muḥammad (SAW)] calling to faith, [saying], 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
[3:193]
رَّبَّنَآ إِنَّنَا سَمِعْنَا مُنَادِيًۭا يُنَادِى لِلْإِيمَـٰنِ أَنْ ءَامِنُوا۟ بِرَبِّكُمْ فَـَٔامَنَّا ۚ
4. Our Lord, so forgive us our sins and remove from us our misdeeds and cause us to die among the righteous. [3:193]
رَبَّنَا فَٱغْفِرْ لَنَا ذُنُوبَنَا وَكَفِّرْ عَنَّا سَيِّـَٔاتِنَا وَتَوَفَّنَا مَعَ ٱلْأَبْرَارِ ○
5. Our Lord, and grant us what You promised us through Your messengers and do not disgrace us on the Day of Resurrection. Indeed, You do not fail in [Your] promise."
[3:194]
رَبَّنَا وَءَاتِنَا مَا وَعَدتَّنَا عَلَىٰ رُسُلِكَ وَلَا تُخْزِنَا يَوْمَ ٱلْقِيَـٰمَةِ ۗ إِنَّكَ لَا تُخْلِفُ ٱلْمِيعَادَ○

And their Lord responded to them, "Never will I allow to be lost the work of [any] worker among you, whether male or female; you are of one another. So those who emigrated or were evicted from their homes or were harmed in My cause or fought or were killed - I will surely remove from them their misdeeds, and I will surely admit them to gardens beneath which rivers flow as reward from Allāh, and Allāh has with Him the best reward." [3:195]

And indeed, among the People of the Scripture are those who believe in Allāh and what was revealed to you and what was revealed to them, [being] humbly submissive to Allāh. They do not exchange the verses of Allāh for a small price. Those will have their reward with their Lord. Indeed, Allāh is swift in account [3:199]
11. Patience, perseverance, and piety brings success:
O you who have believed, persevere, endure, remain stationed and fear Allāh that you may be successful. [3:200]
Ibn Abbas (RA) said: "The Messenger of Allah (SAW) woke up after midnight and started wiping the sleep from his face with his hand. Then he recited the last ten verses of Surah Al ‘Imran, then he got up and did wudu (ablution) well, then he stood and prayed."
It is recommended to recite these verses first thing upon waking up or to recite before thahajoodh as this revives the Sunnah of the Prophet (SAW).
