Prayer is arguably one of the most valuable spiritual disciplines. A prayer altar gives you the opportunity to magnify it.
What is a Christian prayer altar? A Christian prayer altar is a place that you dedicate to prayer, and time with the Father. By creating a prayer altar, you commit a specific space in your life for these interactions. A prayer altar goes beyond just a physical location, it is the way you live your life.
This concept has been on my mind for quite some time now and is something I am looking forward to applying in my own life. I hope you will apply what you learn about prayer altars to your life as well.
What is an Altar?
In the Bible, altars were used in sacrifices for the atonement of sin and to commemorate a meeting with God. For example, in Genesis 12, God meets with Abraham and promises to bless him. In remembrance of this encounter, Abraham built an altar to the Lord.
A prayer altar is a place where we meet with God in prayer.
It is a place where we can remember all that he has done for us and seek forgiveness for our sins. It is a place we can interact with God through the Holy Spirit, and lift ourselves up as a living sacrifice to Him.
