    If I were not at work I would be in tears because my heart is full of gratitude for this video!! I've been searching for the best way to set up my prayer journal and this is the most complete one I have seen so far. I love art and draw as well so it is reflected in my prayer journal. I was just perplexed on how to make it all come together! God answers!!! Thank you again!

    Thank you for sharing, this is the most in depth and a wonderful guide. I recently learned about prayer journals but it wasn't until I watched this video that I actually understood its value and I've realized this will help me to stop rambling about the same things everyday during prayer and stay on track. Thank you so much and your artwork is beautiful.

    Michelle, you are so sweet! Thank you for posting this video. I got The Hour That Changes the World and have started reading it. I've started setting up my prayer journal. I've tried to set one up several times over the years and never could quite figure it out. I watched the video of the little 90 something year old woman... she is very informative and precious. I could go on and on.... THANK YOU!!!!

    Thank you ..you gave me food for thought, I may start a prayer journal. I've been doing art journals for a year and do some faith pages however your prayer journal is a great way to spend time with The Lord and really focus on praying in all areas.

      like to make it pretty :)

I want you to also know that I have added you to that journal for your healing and energy. I thank God and you for sharing your artistic talent. I also added some little cards to a pocket in my journal with Scriptures that I can pull out and take with me for memorization. Thank you again.

    Michelle, I enjoyed hearing about how Bible Art Journaling changed your life in a few ways, all good. And I appreciated your honesty about not always being able to focus on prayer prior to creating this prayer journal. Bible Art Journaling has changed my walk with God and my time in His Word too. TFS! Sue

    One of the most fun video's about prayer journaling that I've watched _ and I've watched A LOT. 🤗 Thanks so much, Michelle.💕
    So sad about auntie Edith passing away, but she's with our Lord now, so joyful too. I've watched all her video's and I agree with you: she was such an inspiration.💐
    Won't you consider doing an update on your prayer journal? I see these video's were done 6 years ago. 😊

    I really enjoyed and related to you and what you said in this video. A couple of months ago, I made myself a prayer notebook/journal in a three ring binder and while it's helpful, there is room to grow. Keep sharing. You never know who you'll help!

    • @MichelleHotchkissArt
      @MichelleHotchkissArt  9 років тому +1

      Thank you for your encouragement!! I really was torn on if I should make a shorter, less detailed video but every time I tried I felt I was leaving out something that could help someone so I decided to just go with it. I had considered using a notebook or bound journal but knew I would be adding to it and changing things, so this little binder works great!

    @elizabethgrosvenor153 8 років тому +1

    Thanks for sharing your video, you had some sections that I hadn't considered. For your Salvation section, why not start with, say, 5 names. Pray for them every day. When someone becomes a Christian, then you can take their name off and add someone else. I was told to do this on a bookmark in my bible and pray every time I opened it. I ended up frustrated because there are only so many ways to say "God, please save this person". But if you are able to persevere with that, it would be a great way to pray for people. Last time I did this seriously, my best friend didn't get saved (that I know of), but she did get pregnant, so now there's a whole new human to love and dote on, and to pray for. And it was probably that praying that's led to me and her daughter being so close. (The daughter is almost 3.)

    • @MichelleHotchkissArt

    Michelle, This wasn't too long -- in fact I'm going to watch it again when I get home tonight and take notes. I do pray, but not as intentionally as I'd like. BTW, I know what you mean about that grandmother. I lost mine when I was 5 and I've watched her before and thought, "Gee, I wish i was on her family list." I hope you're still vlogging at 93.

    Thank you so much. Your set up speaks to my soul. I have a Prayer Journal Binder ("TURN TO GOD") that I have recently set up. Like you, it is helping me be intentional and focused during prayer. Multiple autoimmune syndromes/diseases have had quite an impact on my life. God also blessed me with artistic talent. I am seeking Divine guidance for how to bless others with my art. Also, having a small area for my studio and art equipment, I am asking God for guidance in transforming my space according to his purpose and for JOY. I need to be nudged by the Holy Spirt to let go of equipment and types of artistic expression that are no longer God's will for my talents. Also, I struggle with life management and finding time to create...yet, HE CALLS ME TO DO MORE ART. I love your ink drawing of the 2 swans in flight...great symbol for an ever evolving marriage (Swans mate for life.) Where do you sell your art? -- Blessings, Linda

    Interesting story for you I was in love with the way Whitney Houston sang told God one day in my prayers that I wish I could sing like Whitney Houston so I could sing gospel songs to him and I've always been able to pray in tongues but I've never experienced singing in tongues so I started singing in tongues and I can tell when I'm singing that they're praise songs so keep praying in tongues and eventually you will start to sing in tongues and you'll love it because you don't sound like you there's something about it that makes it sound so magnificently beautiful just thought I'd make that comment because of the whole nobody wants to hear you sing comment that you made

    Hello, i was wondering if you are a missionary? the things you pray for and how you have your setup seems like you are. if you aren't i think that you can be one. i love your setup & ideas you have. im going to make one based off yours if you don't mind. I've just recently discovered that I have a creative side that I didn't use to have. when I discovered the planning world & started making some things is when I knew. but thanks & God Bless you &your Family.

      @MichelleHotchkissArt  9 років тому

      Thank you, Aliyyah 💟. No, I am not a missionary. I do believe God has a ministry for me that is in the beginning/infant stage and I want to be sure and follow Him where ever He leads. I am very glad you find this helpful. It has helped me very much. It is a work in progress and I've added/changed a couple things in the binder just so it flows better for me. I have a shorter video here on You Tube that shows some of the changes and also has links to a couple printouts if people want them. I have been adding some journaling and now the binder is getting too full so I may just keep a small, separate notebook for journaling that I can just tuck in the binder, lol. God bless you and remember - THINGS WILL BE DIFFERENT BECAUSE WE PRAYED TODAY! AMEN!

    6. With trumpets and the sound of the horn make a joyful noise before the King, the Lord! :)
    Ya know, I don't see anything here that says you have to be in pitch or in tune. God's Word just says to make a joyful noise to the Lord. He knows your heart and your desire to praise and honor Him. So don't fret over it. God's got your back!

    • @MichelleHotchkissArt
      @MichelleHotchkissArt  9 років тому +2

      Hi Ali, praying in tongues is what the apostle Paul speaks about in 1Corinithians 14 and what happened in Acts 2, as well as other places in the New Testament. It is also known as speaking in Spirit. It is a personal prayer language, given to us by the Holy Spirit. I encourage you to read the scriptures so you can personally know what the scriptures say about it. Here is a link to a video which also has an in-depth explanation of if. There are two types, one is for the church, which follows by an interpretation and the one I'm am speaking about is the personal prayer language which is available to every Spirit-filled believed. Thank you for asking and God bless you!

      Katka Pavlíková As I said, the timer is strictly for me to help keep me on track as I often overestimated how long I was actually praying. It turned out to be shorter than what I though, and it was on my heart to learn not to rush bit to slow down and take my time. It’s just a tool, not a rule, as I said.
      That’s what the Holy Spirit led me to do. You do what your are led to do, and I will do what I was led. I don’t need the timer anymore but I did then.

    The only thing I would change is get rid of the time clock that is off putting .can you imagine your family coming to visit you with a timer .when we come to speak with jesus it should be natural I prefer his natural time

      It’s just a guide, not a rule. It helped me but other people may not need that help.
      There is always flexibility in prayer and the timing, and it’s important to follow God’s leading.
      I don’t use the timer to stop myself from prayer, but as a tool to extend my time in prayer. When life gets busy, it’s easy to overestimate how long my prayer time was. This helps me not to be hurried and unintentionally cut it short, but it also doesn’t force me to stop if I need to spend more time in prayer.
      His natural timing is definitely there.
