Praying Scripture
Ron Edmonson talks about how praying some scripture really affected him:
One of the most amazing things about the Old Testament is that it is people living lives and in many ways suffering the same trials tribulations and joys that we do. In praying for Nehemiah, we pray for ourselves. Or when reading the prophets, we ask for their prophetic utterances to be real. There are so many way to use scripture in prayer. Do you?

Praying the truths of these two verses became a pattern for my life over the next year.So often we fight to come up with something to pray about, and yet scripture can be our prayers. The Psalms, of course, are prayers, but other parts of scripture can become a major part of our prayers simply asking God to make the true in our lives.
