I have really enjoyed utilizing this app. It has helped me a lot to write down my prayers, and then hold to those prayers daily. I have trouble when I pray with my mind wandering. I have often journaled my prayers, but that is super time consuming. With the Prayer App, I am able to "journal" my prayer, and scripture that is applicable to the situation. This keeps my mind from wandering and helps me to stay focused on the Lord. The Olive Tree Bible App, Scripture Typer, along with the Prayer App are my three favorite apps. They keep me highly accountable in my spiritual growth and in my walk with God. I also highly recommend purchasing the Prayer app; for the cost, you cannot beat the amount of spiritual growth you will receive. Keep the oil in your lamps! When we draw near to Him, He draws near to us! We cannot receive the oil unless we are drawing close to the Lord everyday in prayer, reading and meditation on His Word, and listening to that still, small Voice. In the book Whisper, Mark Batterson makes the point that God is talking to us all the time. But if we don’t develop the ability to hear that still, small voice, the cares of the world drown Him out. Daily filling our lamps with His oil by prayer, meditation, and reading is what helps fine tune the ability to hear Him. In the days that we are living, WE NEED TO HEAR HIM!!!!!

What I appreciate most about having a record of some specific prayers is it’s great to be able to recount the blessings of answered prayer, knowing for sure what you prayed for, and how God specifically answered. It’s a great faith builder to have evidence that God is listening! It reminds me of how David referenced his previous victories to encourage himself in the Lord to believe for victories yet to come: “Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, since he has taunted the armies of the living God (‭‭1 Samuel‬ ‭17:36‬ ‭NASB‬‬)”. Now I’m ready for battle and can continue in the confidence God gives through answered prayers!
