Prayer
In the Bible it states a specific way to pray(Matthew 6:9). It said you should pray in secret and states the Lord's Prayer:
Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
10
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
11
Give us this day our daily bread.
12
And forgive us our debts,
As we forgive our debtors.
13
And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
The acronym ACTS is a way to remind us how we should pray:
Adoration
the Lord's Prayer
Our Father in heaven, hallowed be Your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done On earth as it is in heaven.
My Personal Prayer
Confession
the Lord's Prayer
Forgive us our debts as we forgave our debtors.
Thanksgiving
the Lord's Prayer
nothing included
My Personal Prayer
Supplication
the Lord's Prayer
Give us today our daily bread. Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
My Personal Prayer
By using ACTS it will remind us how to pray. Repeat it each morning or night either the same prayer or different ones. Praying is important. It is a way to draw us closer to our heavenly Father. It will deepen our relationship with him and remind us that we can always turn to him for help and comfort.
