A Series of Prayer #2: Prayer Reminders

Prayer Reminders

I don't know about you, but always forget to pray for others. When someone shares with me a prayer request, I tell them I will pray, but I will only end up talking to God about it for a day or two...if that. So! I discovered a really helpful way to remind me to take advantage of the power of prayer! I use the Reminders App. 

I simply created a list entitled "Prayer Requests" and added all of my prayer requests. I then clicked each item, opened up the details page by pressing the 'I', then schedule a time for when I wanted to be alerted about that specific prayer request. I set each item to repeat the alerts everyday. Right now, I have the list set so that each hour of every day I am reminded of a prayer need. When alerted, I say a silent or verbal prayer for that person depending on where I am. This prayer method allows me to refocus my thoughts on God, think about others, and build a connection with the one I am praying for throughout each day. Give it a try!

{ First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. 1 Timothy 2:1 }
