Day 10: Prayer

May 21 • Bible reading from Philippians 4:4-9 Prayer

Behaviour: "Prayer is offering up our desires to God for things agreeable to His will
in the name of Christ, with confession and thankfulness."

Text:

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer & petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts & your minds in Christ Jesus.

Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy--think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me--put it into practice.
And the God of peace will be with you.

Take a minute:

List down the worries on your mind lately.
One by one, give them to God.

May 20 • Bible reading from Psalm 66:16-20 Prayer

Behaviour: "Prayer is offering up our desires to God for things agreeable to His will

Text:

Come and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me.
I cried out to him with my mouth; his praise was on my tongue.
If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened; but God has surely listened and heard my voice in prayer.
Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me.
