The ACTs acrostic is a great way to pray. Not only does it give direction, but it’s also versatile enough to incorporate things you are learning and grow with you over time.
A=Adoration:
Spend time praising the Lord by praying the Psalms back to Him (Psalm 28:7 & 100:4). Sing hymns, listening to a praise song or praise Him for His attributes.
C=Confession:
Ask God to search your heart (Psalm 139:23,24). Confess any sins the Holy Spirit reveals to you (Psalm. 66:18, I John 1:9). Make certain that you're filled with the Spirit (Ephesians 5:15-20).
T=Thanksgiving:
Thank God for all that He's done and is doing in your life and the lives of others. Write a list of what you're thankful for.
S=Supplication:
Pray for specific things each day such as personal concerns, family, upcoming events, friends, missionaries, etc. Write down your requests so you'll have a record of God's guidance and faithfulness.
