“First, we’re going to take two minutes of silence to individually prepare our hearts and minds so we can focus on prayer. This time is to give you a chance to confess any known sins, ask God for forgiveness, and ask Him to fill you with the Holy Spirit. Name any worries or thoughts that could distract you and tell God you want to hand them over to Him so you can focus on praying. After two minutes is up, I will pray out loud to open the rest of our time. Then we will start praying for our first topic.”
