Praise Him for things that are on your mind right now. Praise Him for one special thing He has done in your life in the past week. Praise Him for His goodness to your family.<\/p>\n<p><strong>WAIT<\/strong><br \/>\nSpend time waiting on the Lord. Be silent and let Him pull together reflections for you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CONFESS<\/strong><br \/>\nAsk the Holy Spirit to show you anything in your life that might be displeasing to Him. Ask Him to point out attitudes that are wrong, as well as specific acts for which you have not yet made a prayer of confession. Now confess that to the Lord so that you might be cleansed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>READ THE WORD<\/strong><br \/>\nSpend time reading in the Psalms, in the prophets, or passages on prayer located in the New Testament.<\/p>\n<p><strong>ASK<\/strong><br \/>\nMake requests on behalf of yourself.<\/p>\n<p><strong>INTERCESSION<\/strong><br \/>\nMake requests on behalf of others.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PRAY THE WORD<\/strong><br \/>\nPray specific passages. Scriptural prayers as well as a number of Psalms lend themselves well to this purpose.<\/p>\n<p><strong>THANK<\/strong><br \/>\nGive thanks to the Lord for the things in your life, on behalf of your family, and on behalf of your church.<\/p>\n<p><strong>SING<\/strong><br \/>\nSing songs of praise or worship or another hymn or spiritual song.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MEDITATE<\/strong><br \/>\nAsk the Lord to speak to you. Have a pen and paper ready to record impressions He gives you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LISTEN<\/strong><br \/>\nSpend time merging the things you have read, things you have prayed and things you have sung and see how the Lord brings them all together to speak to you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PRAISE<\/strong><br \/>\nPraise the Lord for the time you have had to spend with Him and the impressions He has given you. Praise Him for His glorious attributes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"sub-caption\">From Dick Eastman\u2019s book The Hour that Changes the World \u00a9 2002 by Dick Eastman, Chosen Books, Grand Rapids, MI, used by permission.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/zume.training\/how-to-spend-an-hour-in-prayer\/#:~:text=In%20just%2012%20simple%20steps%20-%205%20minutes,The%20Bible%20tells%20us%20--%20%E2%80%9CPray%20without%20ceasing.%E2%80%9D\">How to Spend an Hour in Prayer &#8211; Z\u00fame Training (zume.training)<\/a><\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/zume.training\/training\/<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Spend an Hour in Prayer This concept is called &#8220;How to Spend an Hour in Prayer&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":31970,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/zume.training\/wp-content\/themes\/zume-training\/assets\/images\/pages\/prayer-cycle-en.png","fifu_image_alt":"Auto Draft","footnotes":""},"categories":[105,129],"tags":[],"series":[],"class_list":["post-31966","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cau-nguyen-prayer","category-english-section"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31966","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31966"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31966\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31969,"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31966\/revisions\/31969"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31970"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31966"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31966"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31966"},{"taxonomy":"series","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/hahosa.com\/vnsalvation\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/series?post=31966"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
