You may understand that there is power in the Word of God. However, learning to apply the Word to your life is also important, and this journal was designed to help you cultivate a key component of that process—prayer! Habakkuk 2:2 says to write the vision and make it plain, so that you can run toward it as you read it. This text only confirms that right thinking, living, and believing is not automatic; it requires effort and participation. That starts with writing and speaking the change you want to see and be! In this 52-week prayer journal, J. Marie Jones will encourage you to engage in the critical practice of speaking life-giving words with faith and intention, declare what you already know to be true, establish a lifestyle of consistent prayer, and keep a record of your faith-filled prayers and reflections.   You can experience sustainable, positive change as you surrender your heart to God's will and affirm his Word over your life.
