SOME PRAYER GUIDES - 2
Part 1 is here
FOR BELIEVERS
Personal prayer can mostly be you and the Lord spending time together. Just talking, i.e., formality is NOT needed. You don't necessarily have to address Him - He knows if you're speaking to Him! (but it's okay). You don't need any 'Amens' or even 'In Jesus Name' to finish - praying has to be in His name anyway, by definition!
If you PRAY ALOUD, whether normal or quietly you'll find this so much better. Try it! It can be good to talk to Him about things you've read in the Word, or that you've learnt here. Talk to Him as to a friend - cos that's Who He is!!
"Please increase my faith. I need more faith, I really do. I want to trust YOU always!"
"I don't want to be conformed to this world. Help me to put You first."
At wake-up time: "Lord, bless this day to YOUR glory!"
"Thankyou that every time a bad thought comes into my head when I press 'Delete' straight away, You then stop it because I've chosen NOT to allow it to go further into my mind - to actually start thinking about it. Your power is so awesome, Lord Jesus!"
"Help me to put You ahead of all the self-centered things I want in this life..."
"Thankyou for helping me! I DO appreciate that lots."
"God, I need Your Spirit's power for today. I know He's with me and in me. I truly trust You for this - and here I go!"
