The Acts of prayer
The ACTS of Prayer
The Discipline of Prayer can be best broken down in sub-categories called "A.C.T.S" which is an acronym or axiom that points us to the precepts of prayer-the categories of Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, and Supplication. This is derived from the Lord's Prayer and other Scriptures, and gives us guidelines so we can divide our time with the purpose of being a good steward of our time with Him, and to engage in prayer with a correct devotion and attitude.
What You Will Hear
- Adoration, means to worship and acknowledge the majesty of God-Praise be to God!
- Confession. Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. This means we are to see our sins and agree with God about the things that we have done wrong.
- Confession also means we are called to be accountable to one another, to state what we are going through and are struggling with to someone in confidence who will listen and help guide us by His Word.
- Thanksgiving-for Thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. This means in our prayer life, we are to be grateful for what He has done for us and we are to recall all His mercies to us.
- Supplication, Give us today this daily bread . . . Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one is a fervent, personal petition, letting God know of our needs. This is called petition, which brings our earnest, humble requests before God.
- Petition is a vital component, but not the only oneWe are to intercede for others, seek forgiveness of our sins, seek His will, and most importantly, we are to praise and adore Him!
- Make sure you have a well-balanced prayer life that is not selfish, but that also does not ignore your needs.
- Start to make a prayer list. Pray for others as their needs come to you; pray for your city, state, and country, your leaders, missionaries, government officials, and persecuted Christians in the world, as well as God's for guidance, wisdom, and opportunities for you and your church and all that can come to you, and for you and them to grow and to serve.
- Be specific and be real!
Scriptures
- 1 John 1:9; John 17
