PRAYER GUIDE

I. INDIVIDUAL PRAYER

A. Praise God

  • Reflect: No longer will they teach their neighbor, or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’ because they will all know me, from the least of them to the greatest. For I will forgive their wickedness and will remember their sins no more.
    Hebrews 8:11-12Worship God for who He is; praise Him for His Character:
    Choose from the ff: King of kings, Kind, Lord of lords, Light, Love, Merciful, Magnificent, Majestic, Near, Omniscient, Omnipresent, Omnipotent

B. Confess to God

  • Reflect: Whoever conceals their sins does not prosper, but the one who confesses and renounces them finds mercy.
    Proverbs 28:13Confess:
    – Ask the Lord to examine your life and reveal any sin
    – Humbly repent and ask God to forgive you
    – Thank the Lord for His mercy and grace through Jesus Christ

C. Thank God

  • Reflect: Let all that I am praise the Lord; with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name. Let all that I am praise the Lord; may I never forget the good things he does for me.
    Psalm 103:1-2

    Thank God:
    – For your salvation
    – Family and relationships
    – God’s provision for your family last 2018

D. Ask God

  • Reflect: Then they will rebuild the ancient ruins, They will raise up the former devastations;
    And they will repair the ruined cities, The desolations of many generations
    Isaiah 61:4
