| Question: What can I pray for? The short answer is everything, often, and if you are unsure of God's direction; pray again. We should seek God's direction in ever facet of our lives; no matter how big or small. Everything we say or do reflects our being followers of Christ. 1-Recognize and acknowledge in your heart God for who He is Matthew 6:9 "Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven." 2-Confess any sin that God puts His finger on in your life. Psalm 66:18 "If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear." 3-Prayer of surrender and renewal to God. Psalm 19:14 "Let the words of my mouth and the mediation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer." 4-Prayer for people who need Jesus. II Peter 3:9 "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance." 5-Pray for our nation. Psalm 33:12a "Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord" 6-Pray for the Southern Baptist Convention and South Carolina Baptist Convention Mark 3:25 "And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand." |
