*Structure for Daily Prayer Together
- 1 Timothy 2:1-2 - I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession, and thanksgiving be made for everyone- for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness.
- Pray for the world wide Christian church weekly
- God looks at our heart in prayer not our technique
- Prayer should not always be spontaneous, otherwise selfishness may take over. "So I need to make a list"
- Remember to use "Acts" in prayer: Adoration (praise), Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication (bringing requests to God, such as intercession for others or petition for us).
- Daniel 9:17-19 "nice prayer"
- Psalms 1:8
- Psalms 122:6
So, in reading these scriptures and looking through this chapter 7 of my book I am seeing that it is scriptural to pray for things I have no idea about or control of...that I should make a list of things to pray for daily and not always pray for the things that are just important to me. Pray for those things that are in "Gods will not mine". So how do I do that Faith? Should I watch the news Hunter? or search the Bible Mia? Savanah, should we write things down so we don't forget? I think I'm going to try to start doing all of that so that I don't miss out on something that my Father wants from me! How about you?
Prayer: Heavenly Father, help me to come up with a disciplined list of things to pray for, things you find important and not just things that I find important because after all I really want your will done in my life and not mine! Teach me how you want me to pray Lord and show me your will, In Jesus name, Amen.
