A MONTH OF PRAYER: Day 9 Review

PRAYING THE WORD REVIEW TEMPLATE:
RECAP, REVIEW, AND ANALYZING

Every week, I recommend going back through your journal and reviewing what you and God have experienced this week in your life together. 

We are a couple of days late in doing this. However, that's okay. It's appropriate that we waited. We needed to go through what we've gone through so that we can build on what we walked into this study already knowing (or thinking we knew). 

I cannot recommend enough doing this template often. The more you do it, the more you will get out of it. You can do it daily, weekly, every 2-weeks, every month, every 3 months, every year, every 5 years, every decade. I recommend doing this at least monthly. Ideally, weekly. Do the daily whenever you felt lead to do so.

HOW TO USE THE TEMPLATE
A Remember: Praying the Word is a lifelong practice. Even after you finish with this study and book, you will continue to Pray the Word for the rest of your life. Hence, this template is part of that journey. 
B Journals: Make sure to grab your journals and this book. When appropriate, you'll grab all of the books associated with Praying the Word and A Loyal Faith Series (i.e. 365 Days of Praying the Word: Scripture List #1) as well. 
C When you do a template, start from the period of time from your last template. This time, we haven't done one before, so we will start from Day 1 of our journals and A MONTH OF PRAYING THE WORD. 
D Every 6 months, do this template of just the templates from the last 6 months--as well as from your journaling. So, that would be two separate templates. In other words, one would be of the journaling from your last template to now. The other template would be done using the last 6 months of templates. 

~*~ PRAYING THE WORD TEMPLATE
Re-read all book material since your last template. 
Read your journaling since your last template. 
Journal your answers to the following:
1 What verses jumped out to you the most? List them and explain how and why they jumped out to you. Also, make note if you want to pray them more over the next week. 
2 Have you increased your SPT and OPT time?
3 How much time did you spend SPT and OPT on average over the last week? Month? Quarter (3-months)?
4 Has your faith grown? Have you become more loyal in faith to the Lord and his Word? 
5 What has God said to you?
6 What have you said to God?
7 What are you applying to your life that God has said to you and that you have said to God? 
8 Write a summary since your last template. 
9 Pray 5 of these verses for the next 24 hours. List which ones.
