How To Pray From The Word of God
How do you pray the prayers in these the next 14 links?
It only takes about 15 minutes
to read all these prayers on these links.
They should be read and prayed out loud every day.
Why read them out loud?
Even at the beginning of the Bible at Genesis 1:3, notice that it starts with, "Then God said..."
In verse 6 it says again, "Then God said..."
In verse 9, the same thing. "Then God said..."
God created the heavens and the earth by speaking them into existence.
By praying the scriptures out loud you are speaking God's will for your life into existence.
Sure, He can hear you if you pray silently, but it is Him hearing the spoken Word that makes Him move in your behalf.
Hearing the Word is what causes your faith to rise, not just reading it.
There is power in the spoken Word.
Praise and Worship
Before praying, you should start with some Praise and Worship songs. You don't need a special songbook; the Bible is already full of songs. Or Listen to some praise music that help to create an atmosphere or prayer and worship.
What better way to catch the Lord's attention, then by singing His Word in song? You can even say the verses if you can't sing. It's also a good idea to end your prayer time thanking Him for what He's going to do.
Now if you like you can start reading the Prayer Promises in link 5. These are Scriptures that promise you that He will hear your prayers and answer them. Reading these builds your confidence and your faith to believe and receive answers to prayer.
The Scripture Prayers

Next is Praying for the Nations and all nations around the world are included in this prayer.

When you Pray for the Missionaries, all missionaries are included, but if you know specifically a missionary's name you can say their name instead of missionaries.
The same goes for Praying for Your Apostle, Prophet, Evangelsit, Pastor, or Teacher, personalize the prayer by saying his name instead of the office.
The next prayer is Praying for their Family. It's important to pray for their family as well as the one whom you are under as a disciple, because if the enemy can't get to them, he'll focus on his family. If you belong to a religion where your minister isn't married, it doesn't matter. He still may have a a mom or dad and other relatives. They all need to be covered in prayer.
Praying for the Church is very important. Many problems relating to the churches and instances of strife and gossiping can be altered if you will just pray for your church. Or pray for the churches as a whole, the church, the body of Christ.
Praying for Relationships - When you pray this prayer, you may see a gradual change in your partner, but the main change is what you see happening to yourself.

Praying for Children - If you would like to pray for a specific child, just replacing the word children with a specific child’s name and this will personalize it.
