Seeking God every day.
Prayer
This month, we’re focusing on the topic of rest! And true rest comes from spending time with God.
Prayer is one way of resting. But, finding the time, focus, or words might be hard.
No matter what you’re facing, Guided Prayer is here to help. In just a few minutes, you can connect with God through Scripture and prayer prompts.
Let’s embrace prayer as one way of finding true rest with God! Start Guided Prayer today.
Prayer is telling God whatever’s on your heart—both joyful and uncomfortable things. Jesus did this in many situations, including on the cross.
You can follow Jesus’ example! Today, reflect on His death with a special prayer, available in the Bible App.
Save this Prayer and share it with Friends to seek Jesus together.
Maybe you want a fresh start from the pain in your past, or maybe you are coming into the new year with hope and expectancy.
As we anticipate the future, we can draw near to God—right now—through prayer.
Imagine what could happen this year if millions of us all over the world joined together to boldly pray for each other, our world, and for God’s will to be done.
As part of our global YouVersion Community, we want to invite you to pray with us.
God,
We thank You for all that You’ve done, and we look to the future with hope.
Our world is full of brokenness that only You can mend, so we pray for opportunities to boldly proclaim the hope we have in You.
In all things, help us to fix our hope on You this year.
Give us strength to persevere, courage to share Your good news, and peace in knowing that You are always with us.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.

With our busy lives and schedules, it can be hard to make time to pray or even know where to start.
When you feel overwhelmed, remember this: prayer is simply an honest conversation between you and God.
Here are 3 ways you can connect with God through prayer.
Do you want to talk to God but don’t know what to say?
Guided Prayer provides daily prompts that help you reflect on Scripture, draw closer to God, and talk to Him about what’s on your mind.
Sometimes when we pray, we get distracted.
With the Prayer List feature, you can focus on talking to God by writing your prayers down.
As you draw closer to God through prayer, you can also draw closer to your community by sharing your prayer requests with Friends.
The Prayer List helps you see how God has answered your prayers and remember His faithfulness.
Sometimes we need to be reminded that we can talk to God at any time.
Prayer Reminders are perfect for when you need extra encouragement to do that.
Go to your Prayer tab, and tap, “Prayer Reminder.” From here, you can set up a time each day to receive a reminder.
Whatever last year looked like, this year is an opportunity for a fresh start.
As a global Community, we have an opportunity to pray over our lives—and the lives of millions across the world.
Imagine what God could do if you joined in prayer with our Community—all praying the same prayer to the same faithful God.
God,
You are the light of the world.
Because of You, I no longer walk in darkness but in Your light. May my life reflect Your truth, pointing others to You and bringing glory to Your name.
Give me the strength and courage to share the hope that I have in You.
This world is broken, but You make what’s broken whole again.
This year, draw near to the lost, the lonely, and the hurting. And, please draw near to me.
May Your love bring us together, mending division and unifying Your global Church.
No matter what this year holds, You are faithful and Your promises are true.
Thank You for the eternal hope that I have in You.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen.
