I have been using these prayer diaries for a few years now and they have really helped me to organise and shape my prayers.
I appreciate the way it gives continuity and freshness. The first double-page spread helps you to pray systematically and regularly for people and concerns. The additional pages can be kept up to date every week or every few weeks depending on how quickly the pages fill up. The sections on 'Reasons to give thanks' and 'Answers to prayer' have helped me to slow down and offer more prayers of gratitude to God than I would do without this prompt.
I have recommended this diary to others and will keep using it for years to come. I would like to buy a version with a different front cover design every now and again but that is a minor concern!
This is a very good way to remember all the people/situations you want to pray for.
Excellent and invaluable aid for Bible study and prayer groups to record prayer requests, answers and areas of continued prayer. Well laid out and easy to use.It is so encouraging to look back and see prayers answered, and helps to support the group growing together in faith and fellowship. I have just ordered another 10 for different groups as our church has just started prayer triplets.
Extremely helpful to give continuity to our Bible study group prayer time, seeing answers to prayer, and keeping people and situations in prayer from week to week with different leaders.
Last year, when I was diagnosed with cancer, I was given a copy of The Explore Prayer Diary and, because I gave found it so helpful, I bought another copy for myself and one for a friend. It helps me to focus my thoughts each morning.
On the first page I have listed everyone in my address book - so I remember to pray for each member of my family everyday and other friends at least one day each week - more often if they are in special need, of course.
It helps me to count my blessings each morning and to focus on situations around the world.
It is really helpful being encouraged to recognise that so many prayers, some not even spoken, are answered each day!!!!
The quotations at the top of the page are encouraging and more often than not, speak directly to my needs/ feelings that day!! (Is there a sequel with new quotations?)
A wonderful book. Thank You
This book was given as a gift - the recipient has said it has really helped her to keep track on her prayer life.
Great deal, well worth the money!
Excellent quality prayer journal, here’s hoping the prayers are as good as the journal logging them lol
I was very pleased to get this prayer journal because it encourages me in my prayer life and helps me to see how God is answering my prayers. It has a straightforward and easy to use format, and I would recommend it to all those who want an organisational tool to help them with their prayer times.
I'm often a rather haphazard pray-er and was seeking something to better structure my prayer life. Essentially this is a notebook with simple prompts for prayer: thanksgiving, answered prayer, etc. however, I find myself keen to fill it in, especially with new developments. Plenty of writing space for each prompt, but not a huge scary space- you could use bullet points and not write reams if you preferred. There's something quite good about seeing your prayer topics written down concretely. Eventually it should prove an interesting life record, I guess. I'm about to be married and sharing the prayer diary and us both contributing to it is proving useful in terms of learning to pray with and for each other. Overall, a great, accessible prayer resource if you want to get your prayer life kick started. Equally though, it depends upon you engaging with it to make it useful. Give it a try!
We use this diary at weekly meetings with our church plant team, where we can record our prayer requests and also note prayers that are answered. There is plenty of space for the team requests, so plenty of space for individuals. We also note many things to give thanks for as well.
It gives us great encouragement that we can look back in our prayer records and then see how many prayers are actually answered by the Lord. If we relied on our memory then we would forget many of the things we have prayed for over the last few months and even years. A great resource.
