#1,168: Revive Your Prayer Life

The 5 Minute Discipleship Podcast

I talk to a lot of Christians who are unsatisfied with their prayer life. They even feel guilty, knowing prayer should be a more consistent part of their Christian life. But sometimes, it feels difficult to get going again. It seems hard to restart your prayer life. Here are some things that will help.

Main Points:

1. First, ask God to give you a renewed passion for his presence. It’s a prayer God will answer because He wants to spend time with you too.
2. Second, decide on a place and a time. Set a reminder on your phone. This is half the battle.
3. Third use a prayer journal/list to help you stay on track. Each morning, I use the 5-minute discipleship journal to walk through my time with God. The journal provides a simple strategy for engaging with God in His Word and prayer. I enjoy using the “Pray First” App that was designed by the Church of the Highlands.
4. Finally, recognize that prayer is your lifeline. Everything we need God can provide.

Today’s Scripture Verses:
