30 Days of Praying for the New Year





When I became a young Christian I had participated in many different areas of ministry trying to see what area I liked best. I remember doing some door greeting, children's ministry, and many other areas but the area that I always fondly look back to is the time when I was part of a special prayer team at our local church.


This ministry was two-fold. One part of this ministry was being a volunteer at the prayer altar so when the pastor called people up to pray they would have a partner to pray with. That was wonderful--I loved it and it was such an eye opener to see that not everyone had it all together and desperately needed God. That really changed my perspective of how I viewed people early on and it was such a blessing to be able to pray for people (sometimes even on their knees crying) and connect with people on such a deep level where they needed someone the most.

The second part of this ministry that I just LOVED was that when our pastor preached a team of us would be behind the stage sitting on chairs and praying for him, the sermon, the congregation and whatever else the Lord placed on our hearts. It was a wonderful time and I will never forget it.




And throughout all the years I have always prayed to God in my head all throughout the day. It is something I just can't NOT do!

You can do this along with me for the month of January or any other time of the year!

Extra Day:  Special Prayer Day - since there are 31 days in January you can pray for everything shown in the calendar or say a special prayer for something you'd like to pray about.

Many of you love praying AND writing your prayers out in a Prayer Journal. It is definitely a great way to keep track of them and look back and see how God answered. Here are a few cute ones:













"She is Clothed with Strength and dignity" Christian Journal can be found HERE. 






My Prayer Journal: Be Joyful in Hope, Patient in Affliction, Fruitful in Prayer is a nice one. 

You can find even more HERE.

I hope these are a blessing to you!
