Prayer Guide For Christians ; The Five-finger Approach by Nobody: 6:54am On Jul 02, 2017 |
Prayer is a conversation with God, not a formula. Yet sometimes we might need to use a “method” to freshen up our prayer time. We can pray the Psalms or other Scriptures (such as The Lord’s Prayer), or use the ACTS method (Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, and Supplication). I recently came across this “Five-Finger Prayer” to use as a guide when praying for others: • When you fold your hands, the thumb is nearest you. So begin by praying for those closest to you—your loved ones (Phil. 1:3-5). • The index finger is the pointer. Pray for those who teach—Bible teachers and preachers, and those who teach children (1 Thess. 5:25). • The next finger is the tallest. It reminds you to pray for those in authority over you—national and local leaders, and your supervisor at work (1 Tim. 2:1-2). • The fourth finger is usually the weakest. Pray for those who are in trouble or who are suffering (James 5:13-16). • Then comes your little finger. It reminds you of your smallness in relation to God’s greatness. Ask Him to supply your needs (Phil. 4:6, 19). Whatever method you use, just talk with your Father. He wants to hear what’s on your heart. —Anne Cetas Father, give me the wisdom to know how to pray for others. REMAIN BLESSED OAM4J
