Begin by spending time in prayer using the first three steps of ACTS. To help with Adoration, dwell on the following verse:“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty;  the whole earth is full of his glory.” (Isa 6:3)Continue with Confession and Thanksgiving.~~~When it comes to Supplication, the Bible shows us the richness of bringing other people’s needs to God, not just our own. We saw yesterday that Jesus intercedes for us; and God had given us the wonderful privilege of being able to intercede for others. And just as God loves to answer Jesus’ prayers, so he loves to answer our prayers for each other!Paul’s prayers are a wonderful model of how to pray for other Christians. As he shares his prayer life with his readers, we see how the gospel of Jesus shaped his most important priorities for his brothers and sisters in Christ.Think of a few people from our church family who you could pray for today. You might like to think of:someone with a particular need or difficultya new person at churchsomeone you are close to.Spend a few moments praying for them in the way that you normally would. (Don’t worry about whether you are praying ‘correctly’. You will mostly be asking for good things! Ask, and God will answer in the wisest way.)~~~Now slowly read over Paul’s prayer in Philippians 1:9-11 (below). Notice the things he asks God for on behalf of the Philippian Christians. Then pray for the same people you just prayed for. But this time, for each one, take a request from Paul’s prayer, and ask God to do the same for that person. You can use Paul’s words or adapt them to your own words.And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless for the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ—to the glory and praise of God. (Phil 1:9-11)Verses for further prayer: 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12 (or any of Paul’s prayers)
