...when your prayer life sucks... Your life seems out of control, lost, confusing, distracting...and so many other things.
Hey Y'all! It's been so long... this is actually my first blog of 2020.... and it's a Challenge!! God gave me this challenge for myself August 28, 2019. ...and I have yet to act on it. When I think about how much further I would probably be right now if I had just been obedient...it makes me sick, lol. But hey, things happen for a reason. Obviously there were some more lessons to be learned. So Im putting it on my blog for accountability and would love for you to join me!! The challenge will take 7-10 days (Depending on how long it will take you to create your prayers).
2020 has been...whew! Y'all know! Kobe, Covid, Racism, More Deaths, Police Brutality, Division, Trump....I'm just tired. We can definitely use a 'refreshed' prayer life. Let's do it! Read Phil. 4:6
God had been dealing with me about prayer for a while. I didn't feel as close as I used to be with Him. There was a disconnect. So I knew I needed to make an effort to have a better prayer life. Prayer is simply communication with God. Communication makes relationships better. Prayer brings results. Period. And you must be consistent and persistent. So join me! Here's what He told me to do:
The Grow & Glow Prayer Challenge with KiMiiJ!
Write down 7 things you want to go to God for in prayer
Write specific details about each subject.
Search for scriptures about each subject. At least 3 for each. What does the Bible say concerning that subject? What are God’s promises when it comes to that subject.
Create a prayer for each subject. Make sure you include the scriptures in your prayers reminding God of his word. Write them out. Always praise God first, ask for forgiveness, pray for others, then about yourself. Pour out your heart. God will hear you.
Example Prayer Formulas/Formats:
Praise, Repent, Ask for others, Yourself
Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication
Praise/Adoration, Forgiveness/Cleansing, For Others, Yourself, Worship/Thanksgiving
It's Your Prayers! Do it however you're led.
Commit to saying these prayers everyday for 7 days. That’s 7 prayers a day for 7 days. Set times each day for you to take a pause and talk to God.
Journal your feelings and experiences. What revelation have you discovered? How’s your Faith? (Keep it up) What obstacles have you faced and overcome through this process? Has God been speaking to you? Do you feel closer? Also journal any testimonies or breakthroughs. (Dated)
Your prayers don't have to be long but be super intentional!
Read Matt 6:6
Im excited to see what will come out of this! If nothing else, I will be grateful for more time with God! I need it. I think everyone does! Praying for you and that God blows your mind when this is over. Read John 15:7 If you are joining me, let me know! I may create an accountability group!
