ACTS

When it comes to having an effective prayer quiet time, you should always begin by reading the Word of God. Then, when you begin to pray, I’d recommend using the ACTS method—an acronym to help keep your prayer time focused. ACTS stands for:

Adoration
Confession
Thanksgiving
Supplication

We start our prayer time in Adoration—loving and worshiping God, adoring Him for who He is. We don’t just love Him for what He does, but rather for who He is. Since He is God, He is the One that receives our worship, our adoration.

The C stands for Confession. Scripture talks about being right with God: “Create in me a clean heart …” (Psalm 51:10). If there is something you need to get right with God then confess it, ask Him to forgive you, and to commit to not repeating the same mistakes over and over.

The T stands for Thanksgiving. This is when you take time to reflect on all that God has done for you and you respond by showing your thankfulness. God says that when His people are thankful to Him, this is a form of worship that moves the heart of God.

The S stands for Supplication. This is when you present your requests to the Lord.

That is ACTS: Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving and Supplication. I encourage you to apply this the next time you are in your prayer time. By using this to guide your prayer time, you will take your prayer life deeper. May God bless you as you seek Him.
