Take an honest tally of your actual time spent in concentrated prayer each day. Is it fewer than 15 minutes? Is it fewer than five?
Now,
1. Take a timer or your smart phone.
2. Set the timer for five minutes.
3. Decide four things you are going to pray for.
4. Start the timer.
5. For the first minute, thank God for anything and everything.
6. For the second minute, pray for the first thing on your list.
7. The third minute, pray for the second thing, and so on until the five minutes is up.
Daniel prayed three times per day. Try this five-minute method three times per day and you will have spent 15 minutes in concentrated prayer! Try it once a day, and you still can look for God's answers.

...In every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
