Sunday Prayer: Powerful Prayers to Declare and Share [With Images]

In this article, we will look at Sunday prayer. The main focus will be on two points: one on praying Sunday prayers and the other on sharing Sunday prayers with a family member or friend. No matter the reason we will explore it today! So, let’s begin…

Many of us head to church on Sunday. We enjoy a time of worship, teaching, and community with fellow believers. It’s a wonderful time of feeling refreshed and fed spiritually. Some churches even do an early Sunday morning prayer service or Sunday night service.

Even though it’s a church day, we can still spend some alone time with Jesus in prayer. It’s those quiet times with Him that really deepen our walk with Him.

So, we will be looking various different Sunday prayers. You can use these privately or share them with others. But before we move forward let’s take a look at some prayer tips.

Pre-Written Prayer Tips

We can find pre-written prayers everywhere. From devotionals, books, online, and more. And they can be super helpful and good.

But as Christians we need to be careful with them. They can become almost like a crutch to us and actually hinder us from connecting with God personally. Basically we rely on someone else’s prayer to be our prayer.

We don’t want that! We want to have a heart to heart connection with the Lord. So, I have found 7 tips that helps us pre-written prayers and how to we can use them wisely and beneficially. I hope you find this helpful.

• Read It First – Read the prayer fully before you start praying it. It’s important to understand what the writer is saying and see if you agree with it.
  
• Personalize The Prayer – Once you have read the prayer now you can personalize it by adding certain loved ones and situations you have going on.
  
• Let It Inspire You – Use the prayer as inspiration! Sometimes you don’t even need to pray it back to the Lord. You kind of use the prayer like a diving board to spring you into your own authentic and powerful prayer time with Him.
  
• Emotionally Connect – Prayers from the heart are prayers God hears. The Lord wants to hear from YOU. Not from a book of prayers or a website of prayers. He doesn’t want religious or robotic prayers. Two prime examples in the Bible are the prayers of David, of the prayers of Jesus in the Garden.
  
• Look at pre-written prayers as a useful tool to inspire, teach, and stir you up. They should never replace authentic prayer.
  
• We are all in different seasons and sometimes a prayer will resonate and sometimes it won’t. Don’t feel obligated to pray a prayer you feel not connection too.
  
• Holy Spirit Guidance – Before praying ask the Holy Spirit to guide your prayer time and reveal things you should be praying. God will place people or situations on your heart to pray for.

Ways to Share a Sunday Prayer

• Write the prayer on a sticky note and place where someone will see it and be blessed.
  
• Take one of the prayers and place it in a card to bless someone with.
  
• Use one of the prayers in a gift. An example would be a book or the back of a picture frame.
  
• Tie a tag with a prayer around a bouquet of flowers.
