The Power of Keeping a Prayer Journal
Sometimes, all you need is something that will prompt you into praying and a prayer journal always come to the rescue at such points.
I woke this morning feeling insipid. I wanted to pray but I felt so uninspired and dry. I knew I had to pray because I cannot afford to go out or face the week with a "dry head."
What did I do?
I simply pulled out my prayer journal and I began to pray over every prayer item that I had written down. The following things happened;
📌 I was able to pray to my satisfaction just as I desired.
📌 While I simply mentioned some of the prayer points again to the Lord, I dwelt for a while on others. My spirit was stirred in a special way when I got to certain prayer points.
📌 I realized God had answered some of the prayers I had prayed in the past and I didn't take note of them.
There are many things God is doing that we overlook because they are not recorded.
Why am I sharing this? I want you to realize the power of having a prayer journal or a prayer list especially when you don't feel like praying.
Sometimes, all you need is something that will prompt you into praying and a prayer journal always come to the rescue at such points.
I will encourage you to keep one if you don't have one yet.
Have a prayerful and productive week!
