   This Praying For Descendants Prayer Journal is free for
   anyone who wishes to make it a part of their prayer life.

   On the front of my prayer journal, pictured on the left, I
   inserted a picture of my grandchildren surrounding an 
   ear (Click on the ear to see an enlarged picture).  
   The picture of the ear has to do with the verse found in 
   Psalm 77: 1.  I cried out to God with my voice, and He
   gave ear to me.  The other verse I use on my prayer
   journal cover is Luke 11: 9 - 10.  It is the one about 
   asking, seeking, and knocking.  In the picture Ian has
   found the balls.  Hannah is asking for more to drink. 
   And Sophia  is knocking.   By the way, the ear, 
   symbolizing God's ear, belongs to my husband.

   I would like to share with you how I put my prayer journal
   together. The Praying for Descendants Prayer Journal 
   consists of 29 pages. Two of these pages are blank except
   for the page numbers. This was done to facilitate the
   layout of the prayer journal, because two sections, 
   An Exercise In Faith and World Over- population A Myth? 
   are best viewed side by side.

  The first blank page #4 should be located on the left 
   side of the Journal with the CONTENTS page on the right.  
   I used a 1/2 inch, 3 ring view binder with non-glare
   page protector sleeves. This works very well. 

  
    
    I want to explain how I use my prayer journal.  It might seem daunting to think that 
    to use the Praying For Descendants Prayer Journal you must read all 29 pages 
    each time you pray for your descendants.  The prayer journal contains 11 sections, 
    but for prayer I use only the Prayers For The Generations section, pages 10-15. 
    Depending on how much time I can set aside for this activity, I at times, will pray the
    headings and all the scriptures, the headings and a few of the scriptures, or even just 
    the headings if my praying time is very limited.  I believe that the Lord is faithful to 
    hear and answer these prayers even if I can spend only a few minutes asking 
    these requests.
    
     I occasionally read the rest of the prayer journal, sometimes the complete journal, and
     sometimes just a section here or there.  I find that the other sections have been
     very helpful in causing a big increase in my faith.  One of the things I also have
     felt is an increasing excitement as I have begun to really believe that God does hear
     these prayers, and I believe He has every intention of answering them.

      I hope this explanation has been helpful.  I would not want you to feel in any way
      that the idea of praying for our descendants is something that would be too
      overwhelming for the average busy person to be able to accomplish because
      of time constraints.   I know God will richly bless you, as He has blessed me, as you
      too, begin praying for your descendants for a thousand generations, to the
      end of time.  God is faithful.

 


PREVIEW PRAYER JOURNAL ONLY
     I have provided this preview so I could add links to
     the CONTENTS page (page 5) to facilitate your checking 
     out the journal.  The PDF (Portable Document Format) 
     version by Adobe Acrobat used for printing out the Prayer
     Journal does not facilitate the use of links.  I hope this 
     preview is helpful to you.
