How to use this Prayer List:

             Prayer is one of the most important things in your Christian life.   The Bible says, “Men ought always to pray, and not to faint.”  (Luke 18:1)  If you do not pray, then you will faint.  If you do not pray, then you will be a weak Christian.

             The reason that many Christians stop praying, is because they think that their prayers are not doing any good.  That is a faith problem, and the only place to get faith is from the Bible.  The Bible says, “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.”  (Romans 10:17)   That is why this Prayer List contains so much Scripture for you to read while you are praying to strengthen your faith.  God really does care, and wants to answer your prayers, when you are praying according to His Word.

You will find a place at the end to record the dates and answers to your prayers.  May God richly guide, direct, and bless you as you go to Him in prayer.
