Question #1: "How to pray? What is the proper way to pray?"

Prayer Guidelines Day 1: Read the entire article below (comprised of 6 questions and the Final Word). As you pray today, write below a specific prayer to God to help you with your prayer life using the principles you are learning from this article. Question #1: "How to pray? What is the proper way to pray?" Answer: Is it best to pray standing up, sitting down, kneeling, or bowing down? Should our hands be open, closed, or lifted up to God? Do our eyes need to be closed when we pray? Is it better to pray in a church building or out in nature? Should we pray in the morning when we get up or at night before we go to bed? Are there certain words we need to say in our prayers? How do we begin our prayers? What is the proper way to close a prayer? These questions, and others, are common questions asked about prayer. What is the proper way to pray? Do any of the above things even matter? Far too often, prayer is viewed as a magic formula. Some believe that if we do not say exactly the right things, or pray in the right position, God will not hear and answer our prayer. This is completely unbiblical. God does not answer our prayers based on when we pray, where we are, what position our body is in, or in what order we word our prayers. We are told in 1 John 5:14-15 to have confidence when we come to God in prayer, knowing He hears us and will grant whatever we ask as long as it is in His will. Similarly, John 14:13-14 declares, And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it. According to these and many other Scriptures, God answers prayer requests based on whether they are asked according to His will and in the name of Jesus (to bring glory to Jesus). So, what is the proper way to pray? Philippians 4:6-7 tells us to pray without being anxious, to pray about everything, and to pray with thankful hearts. God will answer all such prayers with the gift of His peace in our hearts. The proper way to pray is to pour out our hearts to God, being honest and open with God, as He already knows us better than we know ourselves. We are to present our requests to God, keeping in mind that God knows what is best and will not grant a request that is not His will for us. We are to express our love, gratitude, and worship to God in prayer without worrying about having just the right words to say. God is more interested in the content of our hearts than the eloquence of our words. 1

The closest the Bible comes to giving a pattern for prayer is the Lord s Prayer in Matthew 6:9-13. Please understand that the Lord s Prayer is not a prayer we are to memorize and recite to God. [Remember, Jesus said in verse 9 to pray then like this.] It is an example of the things that should go into a prayer worship, trust in God, requests, confession, and submission. We are to pray for the things the Lord s Prayer talks about, using our own words and customizing it to our own journey with God. The proper way to pray is to express our hearts to God. Psalm 139 teaches us that God already knows everything about us, and what is in our hearts. In verses 1-3, the psalmist writes: 1 O LORD, You have searched me and known me. 2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you understand my thought from afar. 3 You scrutinize my path and my lying down, and are intimately acquainted with all my ways. We can talk to Him about our deepest secrets, sins, hurts, and fears, because He already knows them. So, sitting, standing, or kneeling; hands open or closed; eyes opened or closed; in a church, at home, or outside; in the morning or at night these are all side issues, subject to personal preference, conviction, and appropriateness. God s desire is for prayer to be a real and personal connection between Him and us. It is not to impress others (Matthew 6:5). Question #2: "What does it mean to pray without ceasing?" Answer: Paul s command in 1 Thessalonians 5:17 to pray without ceasing, can be confusing. Obviously, it cannot mean we are to be in a head- bowed, eyes- closed posture all day long. Paul is not referring to non- stop talking, but rather an attitude of God- consciousness and God- surrender that we carry with us all the time. Every waking moment is to be lived in an awareness that God is with us and that He is actively involved and engaged in our thoughts and actions. When our thoughts turn to worry, fear, discouragement, and anger, we are to consciously and quickly turn every thought into prayer and every prayer into thanksgiving. In his letter to the Philippians, Paul commands us to stop being anxious and instead, in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God (Philippians 4:6). He taught the believers at Colossae to devote themselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful (Colossians 4:2). Paul exhorted the Ephesian believers to see prayer as a weapon to use in fighting spiritual battles (Ephesians 6:18). As we go through the day, prayer should be our first response to every fearful situation, every anxious thought, and every undesired task that God commands. A lack of prayer will cause us to depend on ourselves instead of depending on God's grace. Unceasing prayer is, in essence, continual dependence upon and communion with the Father. For Christians, prayer should be like breathing. You do not have to think to breathe because the atmosphere exerts pressure on your lungs and essentially forces you to breathe. That is why it is more difficult to hold your breath than it is to breathe. Similarly, when we are born into the family of God, we enter into a spiritual atmosphere where God's presence and grace exert pressure, or influence, on our lives. Prayer is the normal response to that pressure. As believers, we have all entered the divine atmosphere to breathe the air of prayer. 2

Unfortunately, many believers hold their spiritual breath for long periods, thinking brief moments with God are sufficient to allow them to survive. But such restricting of their spiritual intake is caused by sinful desires. The fact is that every believer must be continually in the presence of God, constantly breathing in His truths, to be fully functional. It is easier for Christians to feel secure by presuming on instead of depending on God's grace. Too many believers become satisfied with physical blessings and have little desire for spiritual ones. When programs, methods, and money produce impressive results, there is an inclination to confuse human success with divine blessing. When that happens, passionate longing for God and yearning for His help will be missing. Continual, persistent, incessant prayer is an essential part of Christian living and flows out of humility and dependence on God. Question #3: "What is a prayer of supplication?" Answer: We come to God in prayer for a variety of reasons to worship Him, to confess our sins and ask for forgiveness, to thank Him for His blessings, to ask for things for ourselves, and/or to pray for the needs of others. The Hebrew and Greek words most often translated supplication in the Bible mean literally a request or petition, so a prayer of supplication is asking God for something. Unlike the prayer of petition, which is praying on behalf of others, the prayer of supplication is generally a request for the person praying. The Bible includes many prayers of supplication. Numerous examples are found in the Psalms. David s psalms are filled with supplication for mercy in Psalm 4:1, for leading in Psalm 5:8, for deliverance in Psalm 6:4, for salvation from persecution in Psalm 7:1, and so on. When Daniel learned that King Darius had issued an edict prohibiting prayer to any god but the king, Daniel continued to pray to God with prayers of thanksgiving as well as prayers of supplication for His help in this dire situation. In the New Testament, Jesus tells us to ask for our daily bread in Matthew 6:11, which falls into the category of a prayer of supplication. In addition, in Luke 18:1-8, Jesus teaches us not to give up praying for what we need. James says that: on the one hand we don't receive because we don't ask (James 4:2). On the other hand, we ask and don't receive because we are thinking only of our fleshly desires (James 4:3). Perhaps the best way to approach supplications is to ask God in all honesty as children talking to their kind- hearted Father, but ending with "Your will be done" (Matthew 26:39), in full surrender to His will. After describing the need to take up the full armor of God (Ephesians 6:13-17), the apostle Paul exhorted the Ephesians (and us) to remain alert and to pray in the Spirit, making supplication for all the saints (Ephesians 6:18). Clearly, prayers of supplication are part of the spiritual battle all Christians are engaged in. Paul further exhorts the Philippian church to relieve their anxieties by remaining faithful in prayer, especially prayers of thanksgiving and supplication. He views this as the formula for ensuring that the peace of God, which passes all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:6-7). 3

Here we see another crucial aspect of the prayer of supplication the necessity of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. Those who belong to Christ also have the indwelling Holy Spirit who intercedes on our behalf. Because we often don t know what or how to pray when we approach God, the Spirit intercedes and prays for us, interpreting our supplications so that, when we are overwhelmed by trials and the cares of life, He comes alongside to lend assistance with our prayers of supplication as He sustains us before the throne of grace (Romans 8:26). Question #4: "Is the ACTS formula for prayer a good way to pray?" Answer: The ACTS formula for prayer has been taught to children and new believers for many years. ACTS is an acronym that gives a basic model on how to pray: with Adoration, with Confession, with Thanksgiving, and with Supplication. While prayer formulas can help us learn to pray, they do not necessarily make our prayers more effective or ensure that our prayers will be answered. This model for prayer is loosely based on the Lord s Prayer (Matthew 6:9 13), except for thanksgiving. The ACTS model for prayer includes these elements: Adoration The A in the ACTS model stands for adoration, which means worship glorying and exalting God. Through adoration, we show our loyalty and admiration of our Father. As we pray, we are called to worship God in adoration. This could be a song of praise to Him, praying a psalm of worship, declaring His attributes, or a myriad of other forms of worship. Confession The C in the ACTS model stands for confession. The word confess means to agree with. When we confess our sins, we agree with God that we are wrong and that we have sinned against Him by what we have said, thought, or done. God forgives us and restores our fellowship with Him (1 John 1:9). Thanksgiving The T represents thanksgiving. Philippians 4:6 says, With thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God (ESV). How is thanksgiving different from adoration? The difference is that worship focuses on who God is; thanksgiving focuses on what God has done. We can thank God for many things including His love, forgiveness, salvation, protection, and provision. Supplication The S stands for supplication, which refers to prayer for our and others needs. A supplication is a request or petition. We may pray for mercy (Psalm 4:1), leading (Psalm 5:8), wisdom (James 1:5), and much more. Paul encouraged us to make supplication for all the saints (Ephesians 6:18, ESV), which means to pray diligently for our brothers and sisters in Christ. Is the ACTS formula for prayer biblical? The acronym itself isn t found in the Bible, but it can serve as a guide, especially when we are learning how to pray. It may also help us to concentrate better while praying, as it helps us to focus our minds on what we are specifically 4

praying. Remember, prayer isn t a formula, and each prayer doesn t have to cover every type of prayer. God wants us to talk from our hearts and express ourselves to Him. As we grow in our love for Jesus Christ, we will naturally desire to talk to Him more. Question #5: "What is the key to effective prayer?" Answer: We all want our prayers to be effective, so much so that when we focus on the results of our prayers, we lose sight of the incredible privilege we have in prayer. That people like us can speak to the Creator of the universe is itself an amazing thing. Even more astounding is the fact that He hears us and acts on our behalf! The first thing we need to understand about effective prayer is that our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ had to suffer and die on the cross to even make it possible for us to approach the throne of grace to worship and pray (Hebrews 10:19-25). Although the Bible offers a great deal of guidance on how we can deepen our communication with the Creator, effective prayer has more to do with the one doing the praying than it does with how we are to pray. Indeed, Scripture says, The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective (James 5:16), and that the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous and his ears are attentive to their prayer (1 Peter 3:12; Psalm 34:15), and, again, the prayer of the upright pleases Him (Proverbs 15:8). Prayer saved the righteous Daniel from the lion s den (Daniel 6:11), and in the wilderness, God s chosen people benefitted from Moses right standing with God (Exodus 16 17). The barren Hannah s steadfast and humble prayers resulted in the prophet Samuel (1 Samuel 1:20), and the apostle Paul s prayers even caused the earth to shake (Acts 16:25-26). Clearly, the passionate prayers of God s righteous children can accomplish much (Numbers 11:2). A righteous man or woman is one who is pursuing a life that is pleasing to God, in obedience to His Word. An unrighteous man or woman is one who does the opposite and will not repent of his or her sins. We need to make sure that our prayers are in line with God s will. This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His will, he hears us (1 John 5:14-15). Praying in accordance with God s will is essentially praying in accord with what He would want, and we can see God s revealed will throughout Scripture. And if we do not know what to pray for, Paul reminds us that as God s children we can rely on the Holy Spirit to intercede for us, as the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God s will (Romans 8:27). And since the Spirit of God knows the mind of God, the Spirit s prayer is always in keeping with the will of the Father. Prayer is something believers should do continually (1 Thessalonians 5:17). In Luke 18:1, for example, we are told to pray with persistence and not give up. Also, when we present our requests to God, we are to pray with faith (James 1:5; Mark 11:22-24), with thanksgiving (Philippians 4:6), with a spirit of forgiveness toward others (Mark 11:25), in Christ s name (John 14:13-14), and as stated above, with a heart that is right with God (James 5:16). It s the strength of our faith, not the length of our prayers that pleases Him to whom we pray, so we 5

don t need to impress God with our eloquence or intelligence. After all, God knows what our needs are even before we ask (Matthew 6:8). One of the greatest keys to effective prayer is eliminating the presence of unconfessed sins in the heart of the one who is praying. Because our God is holy, there is a barrier that exists between Him and us when we come to Him with unconfessed sin in our lives. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear (Isaiah 59:2). David concurred, knowing from experience that God is far from those who try to hide their sin: If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened (Psalm 66:18). Once again, Psalm 139 teaches us that nothing is hidden from God. We should be honest before Him, because He already knows all of our hidden, unconfessed sins. Fortunately, if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). Finally, if you want to ensure you are praying according to God s will, pray Scripture back to God, personalizing it for your specific situation. For example, praying Psalm 103:10-12 may look like this: Thank you Lord that you have not dealt with me or rewarded me according to my sin. Thank you that you have removed my sin from me as far as the East is from the West. Help me to worship and revere you all the days of my life. Effective prayer is a way to strengthen our relationship with our Father in heaven. When we study and obey His Word and seek to please Him, the same God who made the sun stand still upon the prayer of Joshua (Joshua 10:12-13) invites us to come boldly before the throne of grace and pray with confidence that He will extend His mercy and grace to help us in our time of need (Hebrews 4:16). Question #6: "What are some hindrances to a potent prayer life?" Answer: The Bible refers to several areas of sin that are hindrances to effective prayer. First, when we are living according to the flesh, rather than in the Spirit, our desire to pray and our ability to effectively communicate with God are hindered. Although we receive a new nature when we are born again, that new nature still resides in our old flesh, and that old tent is corrupt and sinful. The flesh can gain control of our actions, attitudes, and motives unless we are diligent to put to death the deeds of the body (Romans 8:13) and be led by the Spirit in a right relationship with God. Only then will we be able to pray in close communion with Him. One way living in the flesh manifests itself, is praying with selfish desires and wrong motives. When our prayers are selfishly motivated, when we ask God for what we want rather than for what He wants, our motives hinder our prayers. This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us (1 John 5:14). Asking according to God s will is the same as asking in submission to whatever His will may be, whether or not we know what that will is. As in all things, Jesus is to be our example in prayer. He always prayed in the will of His Father: Yet not my will, but yours be done (Luke 22:42). Selfish 6

prayers are always those that are intended to gratify our own selfish desires, and we should not expect God to respond to such prayers. When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures (James 4:3). Living according to selfish, fleshly desires will also hinder our prayers because it produces a hardness of heart toward others. If we are indifferent to the needs of others, we can expect God to be indifferent to our needs. When we go to God in prayer, our first concern should be His will. The second should be the needs of others. This stems from the understanding that we are to consider others better than ourselves and be concerned about their interests over and above our own (Philippians 2:3-4). A major hindrance to effective prayer is a spirit of unforgiveness toward others. When we refuse to forgive others, a root of bitterness grows up in our hearts and chokes our prayers. How can we expect God to pour out His blessings upon us undeserving sinners if we harbor hatred and bitterness toward others? This principle is beautifully illustrated in the parable of the unforgiving servant in Matthew 18:23-35. This story teaches that God has forgiven us a debt that is beyond measure (our sin), and He expects us to forgive others as we have been forgiven. To refuse to do so will hinder our prayers. Another major hindrance to effective prayer is unbelief and doubt. This does not mean, as some suggest, that because we come to God convinced that He will grant our requests, He is somehow obligated to do so. Praying without doubt means praying in the secure belief and understanding of God s character, nature, and motives. And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him (Hebrews 11:6). When we come to God in prayer, doubting His character, purpose, and promises, we insult Him terribly. Our confidence must be in His ability to grant any request that is in accordance with His will and purpose for our lives. We must pray with the understanding that whatever He purposes is the best possible scenario. But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. That man should not think he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double- minded man, unstable in all he does (James 1:6-7). Finally, discord in the home is a definite obstacle to prayer. Peter specifically mentions this as a hindrance to the prayers of a husband whose attitude toward his wife is less than godly. Husbands, in the same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers (1 Peter 3:7). Where there is a serious conflict in family relationships and the head of the household is not demonstrating the attitudes Peter mentions, the husband s prayer communication with God is hindered. Likewise, wives are to follow the biblical principles of submission to their husbands headship if their own prayers are not to be hindered (Ephesians 5:22-24). Fortunately, all these prayer hindrances can be dealt with at once by coming to God in prayers of confession and repentance. Once again, we are assured in 1 John 1:9 that If we confess our 7

sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness. Once we have done that, we enjoy a clear and open channel of communication with God, and our prayers will not only be heard and answered, but we will also be filled with a deep sense of joy. Final Word: Above are many guidelines for praying. Please do not get discouraged in wondering if you will get it all correct and make sure that you don t make it an impersonal checklist. Your personal prayer life and love for God will hopefully grow over the rest of your life as you continue to learn how to talk to and love Him more. Remember, as earlier stated, we are to express our love, gratitude, and worship to God in prayer without worrying about having just the right words to say or model to follow. God is more interested in the content of our hearts. Day 2: Reread the Answer to Question #4: "Is the ACTS formula for prayer a good way to pray?" again (pages 4 and 5) Review the two attached sample prayer journals (paged 11-13). Create you own personal prayer journal using the samples as a guide or by creating your own from scratch. As you pray today, write below a prayer of thanksgiving to God for the wonderful privilege we have of being able to intimately talk with and to our Redeemer and Creator. Day 3: If not already done, please complete your own personal prayer journal. Carefully read Psalm 139 twice today, noticing how intimately God knows you. Reread the Answer to Question #5: "What is the key to effective prayer?" again (pages 5-6). (Day 3 is continued on the next page.) 8

Day 3 - continued: As you pray today, ask God to reveal any unconfessed sin that needs to be confessed to Him. Re- write 1 John 1:9 below into a prayer of response back to God, as you ask for forgiveness. Day 4: Reread the first four paragraphs of the Answer to Question #6: "What are some hindrances to a potent prayer life?" again (pages 6-7). Ask God to examine your heart and life to determine if you are living in the flesh in any areas. Record below anything He reveals to you and ask Him to help you begin to turn away from those fleshly desires. Ask a biblical counselor or mature brother or sister in Christ to help you with this and to hold you accountable to change. Ask God to examine your heart and life to determine if you are harboring a heart of unforgiveness or bitterness toward another person. If not, record a prayer to God asking Him to help you keep a forgiving heart toward others. If so, record a prayer to God below asking Him to help you forgive others as you have been forgiven (Ephesians 4:32; Colossians 3:13) Pray through your personal prayer journal Day 5: Reread the last three paragraphs of the Answer to Question #6: "What are some hindrances to a potent prayer life?" again (pages 7-8). (Day 5 is continued on the next page) 9

Day 5 - continued: Ask God to examine your heart and life to determine if there are areas of unbelief or doubt. Be honest with yourself by recording below any areas where this is true and ask God to help you trust Him more. If you continue to struggle with unbelief or doubt, seek out a biblical counselor or mature brother or sister in Christ to help you with this. Ask God to examine your heart and life to determine if you are responsible for any discord in the home. Make sure that you do not justify any sinful behavior (yelling, cursing, hurtful words, silent treatment, lack of respect, etc.) by blaming how someone else has treated you. Write below a specific prayer of confession for any sins against anyone in your home. After seeking God s forgiveness, go and confess your sins against anyone whom you sinned against. Do not use words like if and/or but in your confession. (e.g., I am sorry I yelled at you, but if you had not yelled at me first, I would not have yelled.) Take complete responsibility for your sins. If you continue to struggle in this area, seek out a biblical counselor or mature brother or sister in Christ to help you with this. Pray through your personal prayer journal It is our prayer that all believers will get to a place in their prayer life where they can affirm the Psalmist s words in Psalm 42:1, As the deer pants for the water brooks, So my soul pants for You, O God. May God bless you as you grow in your prayer life! 10
