PRAYER FOR TODAY - February 5, 2015 (Understanding The Types of Prayer; Thanking God For All That He Has Done and Is Doing In Our Lives)




You have to understand that there are different types of prayers that you can pray to God.  There is the prayer of petition, which is a personal prayer where you pray to God about a specific need.   Then there is the prayer of intercession, where you stand in the gap for others.   Another type of prayer is the prayer of thanksgiving.    This is where you express your thanks to God for the things that He has done for you.    In Colossians 2, it tells us to abound in thanksgiving and Philippians 4, it tells us that by prayer and supplication with “thanksgiving”, we are to let our requests be known unto God.   So make sure you are taking time to not only ask God for the things in your life, but to also give God thanks for the things in your life.      


Colossians 2:6-7
As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye in him: Rooted and built up in him, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving.

Philippians 4:6
Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.


Father today we come to you with our hearts filled with thanksgiving.  Thanking You for the things that you have done and are doing in our lives.  Father we thank You for choosing us to be your vessels here on earth.   Thank You for the sacrifice of Your Son on the cross so that we can live and have eternal life.   Father You are so faithful.   We see, we know, and we acknowledge your faithfulness right now.   Father thank You for your steadfast and unchanging love for us.   Today we just take time to acknowledge You for who You are in our lives and to say thank You in Jesus name … amen.
