prayer. However, all of themmay not be included in every

personal prayer. There are times when we simply pray a prayer

of deliverance or confession. There are other times when we

only pray a prayer of thanksgiving/praise. The important

thing to remember is that Jesus gave us a model prayer.

Other types of prayer

Prayer of thanksgiving - Psalm 9

Prayer of intercession - John 17:1-26

Prayer of vindication - Psalm 17

Prayer for strength - Matthew 26:36-46

There are other types of prayer that we may pray on occasion, but

these are the major types of prayer that we pray on a regular basis.

It is important to remember that prayer is one of the keys

to sustained spiritual growth. We should study God’s

word on a consistent basis in order to learn about God’s

plan for our lives, but we should pray so that the lines of

communication stay open between ourselves and God.

Prayer Changes Things!!

SESSION 5: HOME STUDY SHEET

This week we have learned the importance and necessity of prayer

in developing one’s relationship with God. It is often helpful to keep

track of the things we seek the Lord for, so that you may witness

the development and maturity of your prayer life as well as keep

note of the different ways God has responded to your requests.

Below is an outline of a journal that you may fine helpful.
