Hey there, lovely ladies of faith. Cheri Strange here, and I’m thrilled to talk to you about something that has transformed my prayer life and that of countless Christian women – the Echo Prayer app. If you’re seeking a deeper connection with God, a more focused prayer life, and a way to stay accountable in your spiritual journey, then this app is an absolute game-changer. I use it EVERY DAY, and I am not a paid affiliate. Echo has become a tool in my life to supercharge my own prayer life, and I want to share it with you. Let’s dive into five compelling reasons why this handy tool should become an essential part of your prayer toolbox.

Intuitive and User-Friendly Interface

As Christian women with busy lives, simplicity, and efficiency are key. The Echo Prayer app has nailed it in this department. Its intuitive interface allows you to create personalized prayer lists and set specific prayer times effortlessly. No more fumbling through papers or losing track of your prayer requests. The app will keep you organized and focused, making prayer a delightful experience.

Sync with Community Prayer

Prayer is a powerful, communal act, and the Echo Prayer app understands this deeply. You can join or create prayer groups with like-minded Christian women, lifting each other’s burdens, and witnessing incredible answers to prayer together. The power of unity in prayer cannot be overstated, and this app brings that strength right to your fingertips.

Timely Prayer Reminders

In the hustle and bustle of life, it’s easy to get distracted and forget our commitment to daily prayer or at least who we are praying for. But fear not, the Echo Prayer app is here to rescue your prayer routine. With timely reminders and notifications, you’ll stay on track and keep your prayer life consistent. You can even personalize these reminders, so they come to you at the most convenient times.

We are a family of ten with one son-in-law in the works. Daily, I cycle through pages devoted to needs, desires, people, and causes rotating randomly through the app experience. But there may be days when prayer requests for my family do not appear during the time allotted. As a mom, my longing and responsibility is to pray for those entrusted to me, so I used the reminders feature to make sure I am praying for each one every day of the week.

Journaling for Deeper Reflection

Ever felt like you were talking to God, but the words just wouldn’t come out right? Echo Prayer has a fantastic journaling feature that lets you jot down your thoughts, feelings, and reflections during prayer. This not only helps you articulate your desires and concerns but also creates a beautiful record of your spiritual journey. Looking back on these journal entries will show you how God has been faithful in answering your prayers.

Encouragement Through Prayer Testimonies

We all have times when our faith feels weak, and we wonder if God is listening. The Echo Prayer app tackles this doubt head-on by encouraging users to share prayer testimonies. These powerful stories of answered prayers will uplift your spirit and remind you of God’s faithfulness. As you read how He’s moving in the lives of other Christian women, your faith will be strengthened, and you’ll approach your prayer time with even greater expectancy.

Transform your prayer life pin There you have it, my friend – five compelling reasons why the Echo Prayer app is a must-have in your spiritual toolbox. Embrace its simplicity, join in the power of community prayer, and stay on track with timely reminders. Engage in journaling for deeper reflection and draw inspiration from incredible prayer testimonies.

Best App to Help You Pray

If you ever struggle with staying focused, praying on a regular basis, remembering what to pray, or being diligent to pray Scripture– have I got good news for you! Help is on the way. I have found the best app! Let me introduce ECHO, the prayer app.

My cousin/friend turned me onto this resource a few months ago and my time with the Lord has never been the same. HONESTLY. I can journal, sticky note, and remember stuff with the best of them in terms of what I should pray– but nothing yet has compared with the help this little free app has been to me, personally.

I talked about it in the She Yearns Podcast, Best App for Praying, but I wanted you to have a written account in case you need it that way, also.

It’s so simple. First of all just download it. What you see is what you get. Two simple options: Pray Now or Add a Prayer. Let me tell you about some of the features and how you might utilize this awesome tool in your daily life.

How to use the app

Add a Prayer

First you are going to Add a Prayer.

Enter a title of the prayer. This could be the name of the person you want to pray for, the cause, or need, or maybe the reference if it is a verse, like Joshua 1:9.
Add an image if you like. (You don’t have to do this. I personally haven’t taken the time yet to do this – so you can skip it.)
Add a description. This is for you. Spelling doesn’t count. It doesn’t have to be a complete sentence. It can be in code. Whatever. However you want to jot down what it is you are praying for. The important aspect here is to HASHTAG IT.

For instance, if I want to pray the Scripture, Psalm 90:16-17, this is what my entry would look like:

Psalm 90:16-17

#Scripture

Let your work be shown to your servants; and your glorious power to their children.

Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands upon us; yes, establish the work of our hands!

Then I would push “Add” and now it would be under the “Pray Now” button. I can repeat this process to add more prayers.

Pray Now

When I am ready to pray for the requests I have entered, I simply push the “Pray Now” button and my requests begin to rotate. I turn them like I turn a page on a Kindle.

Feeds

Another feature I like is called Feeds. This is basically a collection of groups, organizations, and causes that has developed a “Feed” or what we might call a profile with different areas to pray in and for and possibly some prayers written out. Let’s say I want to pray for Missionaries. There is a category or Feed with that title. This is what you would do:

Click on that category.
Under Missionaries, there will be several Feed choices like, Pray for Napal, Vision Baptist Missions, 10/40 Window, or Vision for China.
Select one. Let’s say I selected the Feed, Vision Baptist Missions.
Next, I can just look peruse the prayer requests and pray as I want, or I can choose to “Follow this Feed.”
If I want to incorporate the prayer into my own prayer time, I can press, “Copy to My Prayers” and it automatically adds it to my cycle of prayers.
You can join and participate in any Feed for the free version of the app.

If you want to create your own, it requires the upgraded paid version. I’m looking to do this for our ministry here over the next few months. It’s just another way to connect in a meaningful way that is Gospel-Centered.

Reminders

You can set a reminder for a particular prayer, hashtag, or feed, for a particular date, and how often you want to be reminded. That’s just awesome for a mom of eight!

Answered

There is also a mechanism for keeping track of prayers you find God is answering. There will be a bar at the bottom while you are praying that gives the option to delete, share, or answered. Then it keeps track of the ones that you mark as “answered.” I don’t know if you are in the habit of doing this, but I have found this to be of such value in my journals. To be able to go back over the history I am creating with God. That He is present and active in my life- in my needs – in where I am– is so critical to faith. I love this about Echo. So I hope you will utilize it.

Additional Paid Features

There are a few features that are available beyond the Free version: the ability to create your own Feeds, Groups, share your prayers and add photos. I believe it’s $2.99/mo or $19.99 per year. I’m not sure I articulated this on the podcast. I apologize if I did not get it in there specifically. I don’t use these additional features, but I see the value in them. The most useful ones for personal use might be Shared with Me and adding photos. By and large, you can manage very well with the free version. To join a Feed or participate in a Group you do not need to pay anything.

I hope you will try it out. Let me know what you think. And if you are interested in me posting a Feed, what would you like to see on it?

Have a great week!

For His Glory,

Cheri
