Praying Scripture is one of the most powerful ways to align your heart with God’s will. When you use God’s Word in prayer, you are agreeing with His promises and truth.

Start by choosing a verse or passage that speaks to your current situation. Read it slowly, then personalize it into a prayer. For example, turn Philippians 4:6 into: “Lord, help me not to be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, present my requests to You with thanksgiving.”

You can pray Scripture over yourself, your family, your church, or the world. This method keeps your prayers grounded in truth and ensures you’re praying according to God’s heart.

For ministry leaders, teaching others to pray Scripture provides them with a lifelong tool for spiritual growth and encouragement.
