Many believers struggle to pray consistently, often feeling guilty when days pass without intentional time with God. The key to developing a consistent prayer rhythm is to start simple, start small, and be realistic about your current season of life.

Pick a time of day when you’re most alert — for some, that’s first thing in the morning; for others, it may be during a lunch break or before bed. Anchor this time to an existing habit, like making coffee or winding down for sleep.

Choose a location where distractions are minimal. Keep your Bible, journal, and pen handy so you’re not scrambling to find them.

Don’t overcomplicate your prayer plan. Start with 5–10 minutes and grow from there. Consistency is built not in giant leaps, but in steady, faithful steps.

Remember: it’s not about perfection, but about presence. God delights in meeting with you, even if your prayers are brief. Over time, you’ll notice this rhythm becoming a natural and cherished part of your day.
