This prayer guide provides prompts to structure daily prayers around adoration, confession, thanksgiving, and supplication. It includes examples for each section, such as praising God's name "El Roi" which means "The God Who Sees," confessing sins to God who knows everything, thanking God for the church and loved ones, and requesting God's protection and blessings over the coming week. The guide concludes by listing families from the church directory to pray for.

1. Prayer Guide for Nov.23-29, 2008 with Prayer Prompts from Pastor Josh
Adoration: Praise for Who God Is by focusing on one of the names or descriptions of God in the Bible. Matt. 6:9
El Roi-The God Who Sees~ Appears only once in all of Scripture; however, it is a very important name for
the Lord. This name assures us that He is always the God who sees. See Gen 16:13. Father, thank you so
much for looking after me, thank you so much for caring enough for me that you watch my every move and
hear my every thought. Knowing you are watching gives me a sense of peace. Thanks for looking after me!
Confession: Recognizing our continuing need to repent for sin and seek God’s forgiveness and cleansing. 1 John 1:9
As Paul wrote to the Romans “…every tongue will confess to God.” I right now confess to you O Lord-the
God that sees all, the God that knows everything about me. Please forgive me for the ways I have acted
wrongly to other people, please forgive me for the way I come before you in worship and daily devotion.
Thank you for hearing me and for leading me in the truth.
Offer your confession to the Lord…
Thanksgiving: Thank God for all He has done, direct praise to Him and recognize answered prayer! 1 Thes.5:16-18
As Psalm 95:2 says, “Let us come before him with thanksgiving…” At this time of year we have a lot to be
thankful. Lord, thank you for a church that loves you, thank you for a wife that loves you. Father, I am most
thankful for the fact that you are always with me, even during the dark times of my soul you are still there
guiding and loving on me. Thank for watching over me! I love you more and more everyday!
Express your thanks to the Lord…
Supplication: Bringing personal requests and intercession for others before God’s mighty throne. Heb. 4:14-16
Oh the God who sees, I ask that you please continue to watch over your people here in Oregon City, in
Oregon and in the USA. I ask that during this week we would be able to see you moving in some small but
powerful ways. Fill us with an incredible sense of our love and protection. Give us thankful hearts as we sit
down to the Thanksgiving table this Thursday! May you become the God of my family and of this city,
nation and world!
Enter the throne room of God and bring your requests before Him with a heart of trust and
dependency…
