For every genuine Christian, prayer is not something that could be compromised or replaced with something else. In several verses, the holy Bible highlights the importance of making prayer part and parcel of our daily lives.
As Christians, it is strongly recommended that our lives be filled with prayers. Morning prayers, daily prayers, prayer before meal, prayer before going to bed, and midnight prayers should all form part of our daily life routine.
Ephesians 6:18 NIVPray in the Spirit at all times and on every occasion. Stay alert and be persistent in your prayers for all believers everywhere.
The Bible instructs us to pray always and in every moment. It is unsafe and spiritually unhealthy for a Christian to start off their day without prayer, talk more of starting a new week without prayer.
By the help of the Holy Spirit, this article is going to guide you on how to pray for every day of your week. You can pray the prayer for everyday of the week that we will provide in this blog post, as well as additional personal prayer points, as led by the Spirit.
