Prayer Points
PRAYER POINTS are short periods of time that you set aside to “retreat” from the daily rush of life to meet with God. During these “points” of the day, you will quiet yourself for prayer and meditation on the word of God. Christians from the beginning have set aside certain regular times each day to pray, meditate, and search the scripture. It is a very helpful way to keep God as our center of gravity and allow the fresh living water of His grace to flow into our lives so that we can truly bless others. You may pray at as many of the following points as you are able. However, it is important for those seeking to practice a Christian spirituality to build at least one period of "pause for prayer" into your daily routine.
