How Do I Pray? - Louie Giglio

Pastor Louie wraps up our current collection of talks, SHIFT, focusing on how you pray. When we pray, he encourages us to make it personal, lead with praise, ask for alignment, tell Him our needs, clear the air, acquaint ourselves with His word, embrace the silence, and have a heart of gratitude.

VERSES // John 5:19, John 8:38, 1 Thessalonians 5:18,24, Psalm 46

At Passion City Church, we believe that because God has displayed the ultimate sacrifice in Jesus, our response to that in worship must be extravagant. It is our privilege, and our created purpose, to reflect God’s Glory to Him through our praise, our sacrifice, and our song.

Discussion Questions //
1. How personal do you get in your prayers?
2. What are some of the first things that come to mind when it comes to ‘praising
God’ in prayer? What do you speak to God when you decide to praise Him?
3. Pastor Louie has taken a great deal of time in this collection of talks to urge our House to align with God’s plans. What have you learned about lining yourself up with God’s initiative from these talks on prayer?
4. What are some of the biggest things you ask of God? What are some of the smallest things you ask of Him?
5. What does it mean to “clear the air” with God – in your own words?
6. What was the idea behind the misnomer of a ‘Prayer Life’? How should the Word inform how you speak to God?
7. What does it mean to “come in hot” in prayer? When are you most guilty of this?
8. What are three of the most common things you thank God for?
9. What are three uncommon things you could thank God for, right now?
10. Pastor Louie shares that prayer is not formulaic; we should not all be praying the same prayer nor should we individually be praying the same prayer all the time. Should you be sitting in silence? Speaking more praises? Giving actual thanks? What is – or should be - your prayer in your current season?
