We should speak to God throughout the day. But, when we sit down for our time of prayer, this method be a guide through what to say. This is not the only way to pray, but it helps when you’re not sure where to start.
ACTS
Adoration – acknowledge who He is (1 Chronicles 29: 10b “Praise be to you, LORD, the God of our father Israel, from everlasting to everlasting.
Confession – acknowledge who we are and obtain righteousness (1 John 1: 9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.; James 5:16b The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.
Thanksgiving – Thank Him for everything good (James 1:17a Every good and perfect gift is from above)
Supplication – Making requests known to God (Philippians 4:6 Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done.)
