When Should I Pray?

List by Ami Hendrickson

God loves to hear from His children. At any time, we can whisper a prayer and call on the mighty power of heaven. God invites us to talk to Him at any time, for any reason.

I will pray whenever I am in trouble

Psalm 55:17

Evening, morning, and at noon, I will cry out in distress. He will hear my voice.

I will pray when I am pursuing peace

1 Peter 3:11-12

Let him turn away from evil and do good. Let him seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears open to their prayer; but the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.

I will purposely pray when I am alone with God

Mark 1:35

Early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there.

I pray when I need mercy and grace

Hebrews 4:16

Let’s therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace for help in time of need.

My prayers of thanks are never-ending

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

Always rejoice. Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you.
