PrayerMate

I’m always want to go deeper in prayer. Prayer is food for the soul. And when my prayer life is shallow, my soul withers.

I have felt for a long time that a cell phone app related to prayer could be helpful. I have looked at the app store many times, and honestly everything seemed pretty shallow. You could find prayer apps that would let you keep a few prayer requests. Or ones that would remind you to pray. But nothing very robust.

A few weeks ago, I found an app that is a game changer! This app is incredible and has helped me immensely already. Introducing PrayerMate. As a qualifier, I don’t know the developers and I’m not paid to promote the app. I just think it is cool and hope others will also find it helpful too.

What makes PrayerMate so incredible is its ability to allow personal input while also drawing active and dynamic content into the app. Let me explain. First, the app is built on a series of lists. You get to create whatever lists are important for you. One of my lists is for my family. It allows me to enter their names, photos, and things I’m praying for them. That’s the part of lists I build.

There are other lists that are completely built for me and are updated daily. I end my prayer time by praying for a country of the world. It draws dynamic content from Operation World to give me the country of the day. Today I prayed for South Africa. And the developers are working with dozens of mission agencies for them to add live content. You simply subscribe to that feed.

It is hard for me to explain all the benefits and potentials of this app. You gotta try it for yourself to really appreciate it.

Try the app, and if you agree with me, let’s support the developers ($10.99/yr). I long developers like these young Brits who do more truly meaningful apps like this one!
