Day 1 of Prayer - Adoration

The word ‘ACTS’ is a simple pattern for prayer. A is for Adoration, C is for Confession, T is for Thanksgiving and S is for Supplication.

The greatest commandment is that we love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength (Matt.22:36-38). Spend some time expressing your love to God. Think about him – who he is, what he is like, and what he is done. Reflect on his character qualities – love, mercy, faithfulness, grace, goodness, justice, and holiness. Worship and adore him. Praise him.

Then the Lord came down in a cloud and stood there with [Moses]; and he called out his own name, Yahweh. The Lord passed in front of Moses, calling out, "Yahweh! The Lord! The God of compassion and mercy! I am slow to anger and filled with unfailing love and faithfulness. I lavish unfailing love to a thousand generations. I forgive iniquity, rebellion, and sin. [Exodus 34:5-7. NLT]
