[:en]FIVE-FINGER PRAYERS
- When you fold your hands, the thumb is nearest. So begin by praying for those closest to you – your loved ones (Phil. 1:3-5)
- The index finger is the pointer. Pray for those who teach – Bible teachers and preachers, and those who teach children. (1 Thes. 5:25)
- The next finger is the tallest. It reminds you to pray for those in authority over you – national and local leaders and your supervior at work (1 Tim. 2:1-2)
- The fourth finger is usually the weakest. Pray for those who are in trouble, those who are suffering, and those who are sick. (James 5:13-16)
- Then comes your little finger. It reminds you of your smallness in relation to God’s greatness. Ask Him to supply your needs (Phil. 4:6, 19)
You can talk to your Heavenly Father in any method you want as long as it comes from your heart.[:]
