Hi everyone, some questions- about how much time do you spend praying per day? Also do you pray the same amount of time every day or does it vary? Also do you pray for the same things every day or does it vary? Was just curious. Thanks!

I pray throughout the day... don't keep track of minutes. I pray according to needs so it varies. Lately praying a lot for my dear friend Lopa who's very ill.

I kind of pray all day...by that I mean I am communicating with God all day long.

Right after I let my dog out to potty, I've developed a habit of greeting The Lord and, ask for general (some specific) prayers for my family, my neighbors, this site and ask God to bless their day and to allow me to be sensitive to His Spirit's leading. Then many times throughout the day and night as it comes up in my mind and heart.

About 30 minutes a day, 2 x 15 min prayers. On days I go Church I pray for longer. Usually when something big or important comes up my prayers are longer. Example, if a family member is ill, sometimes prayers can go over an hour.
Most days I pray for the same similar things, happiness, health, friends being safe, peace.

Usually mid morning, afternoon and bedtime, but I try to continuely put my mind and prayer on God through the day. I pray the same prayer and subtract or add according to the needs. I try to be more specific in the after noon. Such as, " God i pray for so and so, but then I add why. for their salvation if not saved and that God would protect over their minds and bodies and bless them ect.

I have no set prayer time like the encouraged habit of setting time aside to pray each day to God.

However, when I have a sense to pray to God I do so, even if it is only a prayer that takes a second of two to pray, but when it comes to worshipping, praising and thanking God, no time span seems adequate to do just this.

My prayer life seems just like talking with my best friend where the conversation goes back and forth between speaking and listening to each other. In other words, my prayer life is all about establishing an intimate and personal relationship with God.

I pray early in the morning around 3am daily for my family, friends, unbelievers I know, and the folks here and then throughout the day as the situation requires.
