Praying Today's Psalms: Worshiping God from a Thankful Heart

Our hearts yearn for an intimate connection with God, yet it seems we cannot quite reach Him. Although we try to capture those “Jesus Calling” moments, something in our spiritual walk is lacking.

Scripture tells us we don’t know how to pray. (Take a breath, the pressure's off. It’s not your fault!) If we want to pray according to God’s will, the Bible instructs us to pray in the Spirit. But how do we do that? Perhaps the place to begin is to pray God's Word.

Praying Today’s Psalms marries Old Testament prayer principles with New Testament Spirit-led practices. In doing so, we speak words that God hears. These simple but powerful prayers transform our heart, instill integrity, and draw us nearer to God. If your spiritual life needs help, go where many have gone for thousands of years to find power in prayer: the prayers of the psalmists.
