Prayer Journal (ACTS)

• Adoration - Praise God for being the Divine Author! He wrote the Word and He preserved it.
• Confession - Ask God to reveal hidden sin in your life and then confess it.
• Thanksgiving - Thank God for any answers to your prayers.
• Supplication - What are your prayer requests this week? List them for future reference so that you can see how God answers.

Search the Scriptures

Look for references for each of the following:

• Promises that God made and to whom He made them. Do they apply to you?
• References that either refer to or infer something about future events.
• What does this passage teach about Jesus?
• Commandments that God made and to whom He made them. Do they apply to you?

Putting the Word into Action

Many times circumstances look overwhelming. That was certainly the case when Hezekiah's kingdom was threatened! He made his requests known to God who then answered them mightily! God sent the prophet Isaiah to give Hezekiah the news that God would meet their needs. Are you facing overwhelming circumstances? God sent His Prophet to tell you that He will provide for you if you seek His kingdom first. See Matthew 6:33 for confirmation of this.
