Prayer on Bended Knees

For those of you who were at our first prayer meeting of the year, we hope that you had a great time connecting with God and interceding for yourself. As we start the week, we want to encourage you to continue to take time praying for yourself. This is not a self-centred attitude of asking God for "me, me, me!" but a realisation that we desperately need God and desire to get right with Him.

You might find it useful to use Psalm 63 to guide you in your time of prayer as we did on Sunday morning. Below are the same prayer prompters we used on Sunday. Have a blessed week committing yourself unto the Lord. :)

Prayer on Bended Knees
(Our Personal Posture before the Lord)

Let’s spend the first portion of the time to seek Him. Let this be the time that we will learn to find:

-Reconciliation and forgiveness of sins through Jesus, the High Priest.
-Restoration of relationship with Him
-Revelation of God in our lives to know Him.

You can use the following as a guide:

-Find a place for yourself, away from pp that you will be tempted to talk to.
-Read and meditate through Psalm 63
-As you read, begin to use the psalm as a prayer before God. You can personalize the psalm i.e. use your own words

Eg:
my soul thirsts for you,
my body longs for you,
even in this time where my family are in chaos; my studies are not doing well...

- Ask God to reveal the conditions of our hearts as we pray

- Pray for these areas of our lives:

1. In Repentance- of sins; asking for forgiveness (*Repentance does not stop at feeling sorry for the act; but a commitment to TURN 180° away from it.)
2. In Restoration- of relationship with God; claiming His promises of love
3. In Revelation- of knowing who God Really is in our lives; living a life according to His pleasure
