SD A2F PRAYER WALL | Winter Break 2020 by Audrey Lin

Psalm 13:1-6

audreylin — 2020-12-19 07:07:20 UTC

How long, O LORD? Will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face from me?
How long must I take counsel in my soul
and have sorrow in my heart all the day?
How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?
Consider and answer me, O LORD my God;
light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death,
lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed over him,”
lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken.
But I have trusted in your steadfast love;
my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.
I will sing to the LORD,
because he has dealt bountifully with me.

Matthew 6:7-8

audreylin — 2020-12-19 07:07:20 UTC

And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

Matthew 6:9-13

audreylin — 2020-12-19 07:07:20 UTC

Pray then like this:
“Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.
Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

audreylin — 2020-12-19 07:07:20 UTC

"Prayer is the central avenue God uses to transform us. If we are unwilling to change, we will abandon prayer as a noticeable characteristic of our lives. The more we pray, the more we come to the heartbeat of God. Prayer starts the communication process between ourselves and God. All the options of life fall before us. At that point we will either forsake our prayer life and cease to grow, or we will pursue our prayer life and let Him change us."
- Richard Foster, Celebration of Discipline

audreylin — 2020-12-19 07:07:20 UTC

“The word of God is the food by which prayer is nourished and made strong.” - E.M. Bounds

audreylin — 2020-12-19 07:07:20 UTC

"It is possible to move men, through God, by prayer alone."
- Hudson Taylor

audreylin — 2020-12-19 07:07:20 UTC

"The Gospel reawakens us to the beauty of God and overwhelms us with mercy. Our behaviors changes because we change. Until that happens, all religious changes will be superficial."
- JD Greear

Ephesians 6:18

audreylin — 2020-12-19 07:21:54 UTC

Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints
