One Tip to Organize Your Prayer Life

Here is one tip you need to organize your prayer life plus a free printable!

My heart sank as I read the exciting email.

A dear friend was writing me to thank me for my prayers. God had answered and the situation was resolved.

While  I was elated for her that God had come through, as I knew He would, I felt guilty that I hadn’t given the situation as much prayer as I had promised.

In the moment I had good intentions, but between nursing and diapers, an active toddler and housework, the need got swept aside and lost in all the daily clutter.

Sadly, this episode was rerun several times over since then. Each time it bothered me more and more because I hate to break my word.

I had promised to pray.

I needed to follow through on my promises!

So, I came up with a prayer list. On it I kept a running list of needs to pray for.

Every time someone shared a need, I would write it on my list. I would check back to see how my friends were doing.

It was very efficient!

At first I was quite proud of my little system. That is until my list became so overwhelmed with needs that I found I lacked time to adequately pray for them all.

My system needed tweaking! That’s when I turned to my index cards.

The ultimate organizing tool!

Organize your prayer life with these free printable prayer cards!

I have 8 of them.

One is for daily prayers. I pray through The Lord’s Prayer as a guide. Here is a booklet and work book where I describe how this works.

The remaining 7 cards are divided up Monday through Sunday.

At the top of the card is one ongoing need.

Under that I pick 4-5 additional needs to pray for each day. This way, each need or person is prayed over each week.

I have been using this system for months now, and have found it to be my best system yet!

I made these free printable prayer cards for you to use. You will receive a link immediately in your email to download these prayer cards, along with a bunch of other fun and useful printables!.

    Hi. Thank you for all of your helpful ideas. I tried to download the booklet and workbook for your prayer system. I didn’t find a link or anything that I could download. Your system sounds incredible, and I k now I could some help. I am a subscriber. Could you please send me the link or something for the booklet and workbook?

    Blessings to you.

    Rosilind….what a great tool to stay on top of prayers to be prayed. I need to be more diligent in this area myself. Thank you for sharing your system. Visiting from Teaching What Is Good.

    This is a great idea! I usually end up spending 20-30 minutes per day praying for the needs of others, which can be overwhelming. This idea sounds so much more manageable! Thanks for sharing. 🙂

    Great idea! When I was in college, I used index cards, but used one for each person, and just added to it. It ended up taking a LONG time to go through them. I like your idea a lot. Thanks for the freebie!
    Loved seeing you link up with us at Grace & Truth this week!
