Adoration

This is the time for telling God what He means to you and how much you love Him. This is not quite the same as Thanksgiving where you thank God for all He has done, but a time to tell God how magnificent, holy, and glorious He is. When you start your prayer time with adoration and praise, you focus first on God, rather than on yourself.

Job 1:21

“. . .Naked came I out of my mother’s womb; and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD.
