It’s a new month, which means it’s time for the 5-Day Worship Challenge again! Here we go!
This month our focus is on incorporating worship into our prayer time for ourselves and others. There are many examples in the Psalms of people being drawn into a time of supplication during times of worship. So let’s spend this week purposefully combining the two.
Write out prayer requests for your yourself, family, and friends, and then assign names and/or characteristics of God that correspond to each request. As you pray for these requests each day, worship God for those truths about Him that relate to each one. It’s amazing how our perspective is transformed when we focus on the truths of who God is in relation to our requests! Be sensitive if the Spirit leads you to spend a little more time on the worship aspect of your prayer time.
If you’d like to see how David combined worship and supplication, read through Psalms 19 and 86. Also take advantage of my list of Names, Titles, and Descriptions of God here on this blog site to guide your time.
Let me know how this changed your prayer time at all!
Blessings on your next 5 days!
