If you need to be reminded to pray for others, keep a prayer journal with a list of the people who need your prayers and how you want to pray for them. Then pray as the Spirit leads. It's inspiring to think how Paul constantly remembered to pray for Timothy. We can do the same with people in our own lives."
PRAYER: "Lord, help me to not forget anyone in my prayers. Especially show me the people who feel forgotten so that I can remember them in intercession. Bring specific people to mind who need a miracle of healing or help. Show me who needs to hear Your voice guiding them. Enable the people I pray for to sense Your love in their lives."
