✍🏾 Why I Write My Prayers Down
My prayer journal is more than just words on a page—it's a testimony of God's faithfulness! DO Y’ALL HEAR ME!!! HE IS FOREVER FAITHFUL! 🙌🏾✨
When I’m in the valley, I can look back and see how God has answered my prayers before—and I know He will do it again. “I will remember the deeds of the Lord; yes, I will remember your wonders of old. I will ponder all your work, and meditate on your mighty deeds.” (Psalm 77:11-12, ESV)
Even when the answer is no or not right now, I trust that He is wiser than me. “For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.” (Ecclesiastes 3:1, ESV) His timing is perfect, and His plans are always for my good. ❤️
Writing down my prayers reminds me that He never leaves or forsakes me. “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:8-9, ESV)
Every answered prayer is a testimony, and every "no" is still part of my story. “It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” (Deuteronomy 31:8, ESV) I owe Him all the glory! 🙏🏾✨
