Looking for prayer list templates to keep track of prayer requests and keep your prayer binder organized?

Having a plan for your prayer life is important because the enemy has a plan for you. Printable templates can help you do just that. 

How do you make a prayer list?

Some people’s prayer lists cover matters from personal concern to international concern. Prayer list items range from the neighbor over the fence, to the missionary abroad to foreign governments. Your list does not have to be this wide.

Making a prayer list is as simple as writing down the things that concern you. Everything from your spiritual growth, to your health, to your family, to your job. There is nothing that is too big or too little for your prayer list. If it concerns you, it also concerns God. 

If you are new to making prayer lists, I have put some examples below using the templates in this post. Check them out.

These pretty prayer list templates will allow you to make a list in a brain-dump kind of format. With the blue and yellow prayer sheet, just write down what you want to remember prayer about. There is no particular category of order.

How do I keep track of prayer requests 

This is a good question. I try to pray for people right on spot as they request prayers because you know the human brain can be like a strainer. But, requests keep coming every day. And then there are some requests that are on-going. Things that need to be kept before God for a long time. 

Using a prayer request tracker template is a good idea. This prayer request tracker will allow you to write down the name of the person you are praying for or describe the situation. You can also write notes about any updates and/or when God does answer.

Prayer list examples

If you are still struggling with how this all works, here are a couple of examples of prayer lists. I used the same templates in this post. 

You can also just use typing sheets or a composition book to do this. But some people like their stationery to be pretty because, you know, motivation is and all.

What is a prayer list at a church?

Most churches have a prayer ministry. This ministry is fueled by requests from the members to pray about various things. To keep track of all these requests, they will create a prayer list. A list like this is a good idea for many reasons. 

First, the body of faith will know what is going on with each other. Documenting these requests also helps to keep track of how and when God answers those prayers. It can serve as encouragement and instruction for the body of Christ.

Other prayer list template options 

Do you prefer a version that you can just type into instead of having to print it? Perhaps a Microsoft Word document is what you need. Check out TemplateLab has 49 prayer journal templates in with prayer list templates in Word for both children and adults.  An excel Prayer list template is also an option if MS Word template is not what you are looking for.

I know not everyone is like me. For spiritual exercises like prayer and Bible study, I prefer paper and pens. If you prefer to have your list of things to pray for on the go, you can check out Echo. It is a prayer list app and so much more and it can be used on both Apple and Android devices. Echo is among the 10 best prayer apps to try.

    Thank you for the resources and ideas for a prayer journal/binder. I just got done watching The Forge. I’ve been needing to journal again for awhile and haven’t done it yet. Again, thank you for the resources and ideas.

      Hi Stephanie. You’re very welcome. God’s richest blessing as you return to praying and journaling. I am yet to watch The Forge. I hope it was good because I am looking forward to it.

          Hello Ann. I am not sure why the files are opening in Canva. I hardly use Canva. But I have emailed pdf versions to you. I hope those files will be better. Please let me know. Blessings to you.
