The thoughts, learning, and practice of being a prayer warrior

Welcome to another day and another personal journaling entry of the story of my journey of learning how to offer prayer protection.

When I started to journal my journey of learning this type of prayer, I have to confess how I had not prayed nearly as much as I should, and forgot to pray far more than I did pray. I am starting over in my prayer life, pure and simple.

I started this prayer protection journey on March 27, 2016 and it has now been a total of eight days so far. Has it been this long already, Lord?

Prayer to be Used as a Prayer Warrior:

Lord, I think I have already learned a great deal and have been reminded of far more regarding prayer in general and in the offering of prayer protection and being a prayer warrior and watchman. Thank you for teaching me so patiently. Please teach me a great deal more each and every day. Moreover, God, help me also apply what I learn and to remember what I learn. Teach me what it means to be a prayer warrior. I want you to use me as one. Show me what it means to be and act as a prayer warrior. Use me. Help me to hear your every prayer prompt and to immediately respond. To you be the glory.

I pray these verses:

Luke 11:1 New Century Version (NCV)
11 One time Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his followers said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray as John taught his followers.”

Matthew 7:7-8 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
7 “Keep asking, and it will be given to you. Keep searching, and you will find. Keep knocking, and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who searches finds, and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.

James 5:16 Expanded Bible (EXB)
16 [L Therefore,] Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so God can heal you. ·When a believing person prays, great things happen [L The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective].

1 John 5:14-15 New Living Translation (NLT)
14 And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. 15 And since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for.

Prayer and the Holy Bible 

I never need to be at a loss of words and never need to be unsure of my words in prayer or of my prayers. I could pray through every verse of the Bible multiple times and get a great deal from it and be thoroughly blessed and bless others through it as well. This is why I include the Bible verses I do. I want to pray them over and over and pray them so much I memorize them by accident.

This is one of the most effective ways to pray and is the easiest, frankly. Never mind the most rewarding for myself and all I pray about. After all, here is a promise:

Isaiah 55:11 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
11 so My word that comes from My mouth
will not return to Me empty,
but it will accomplish what I please
and will prosper in what I send it to do.”
