Pray First.

Every session opens with the proven ACTS framework... Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, then Supplication. PrayerMap guides you through each phase with a reflection prompt and a rotating scripture verse in your preferred translation, so your prayer time is always balanced and complete. Prefer to go straight to your list? Toggle ACTS off in your profile in one tap.

Not sure what to pray for your son, your pastor, your city, or a friend in the hardest season of their life? The suggestion library holds 7 categories, 34 topics, and 224 individual prayer points, and every one of the 224 carries the full scripture text with it. Pick a topic, uncheck anything that is not yours to pray, and tap once. An empty account becomes a full, scripture-anchored prayer list in about ninety seconds. You can also borrow just the verses: on any prayer item, tap Browse suggestions to pull scripture from a single prayer point into what you have already written. Verses append rather than replace, so you can stack them.

Built on the prayer map framework from Lead With Prayer and long-standing Christian prayer traditions.

Group your prayers into subjects (Family, Work, Church, Missions) and add as many specific items as you need. Tell PrayerMap who a subject is... a man, a woman, a married couple, or a group... and the app speaks about them correctly, including praying Paul's prayers over a husband and wife together with the right plural pronouns. Priority weights keep the most critical items rotating more frequently. Sessions shuffle your list by default so each prayer time feels led and fresh... or switch to priority order in your profile if you prefer consistency.

Set your timeframe (weekly, monthly, quarterly, or yearly) and PrayerMap automatically distributes your prayer items across your available sessions. No manual planning needed.

Mark individual prayers as complete each session. Grace day support means missing a day doesn't derail your schedule. Your progress is always visible on the dashboard.

Mark a prayer answered from the edit form or straight from a live session, and write down how God moved. Back-date the answer to the day it actually happened so your history stays true. The item leaves your schedule on its own... no cleanup needed... and PrayerMap invites you to add a follow-up prayer, because a surgery answered becomes recovery prayed for, and recovery answered becomes full restoration. The story keeps going instead of just closing.

The Reports page is not a productivity scoreboard. It is a place to remember. A Journey Overview charts your whole history at a glance, an ACTS breakdown shows how your prayer time has been balanced across adoration, confession, thanksgiving, and supplication, and a daily view lets you tap any single day to open what you prayed that day. Your full answered prayer history sits alongside it, in order, with the notes you wrote when it happened. Seasons you would have forgotten turn out to be recorded.

Choose your translation once in your profile and every verse in PrayerMap renders in it... the suggestion library, your own key scriptures, the ACTS session verses, and the Pray Like Paul prayers. Available now: AMP, CJB, ESV, KJV, MSG, NASB, NASB95, NET, NIV, NIV84, NKJV, NLT, and RSV. Pray in the words you already know by heart.

Your prayers are yours alone. In team accounts, administrators see only aggregate counts... never the content of individual prayer items. No exceptions. No backdoors.

Invite your team, small group, or church staff. Each member manages their own prayer life independently under one shared account... with no visibility into each other's content. On Ministry plans and above, the account admin gets a team management panel to invite, activate, and deactivate members, see where each person sits against plan limits, and open an aggregate analytics dashboard showing how the team is engaging... never what anyone is praying.

Every prayer item carries full verse text right alongside the request. Pull verses from the suggestion library or paste your own. Key scriptures display in full during each prayer session... grounding your intercession in God's Word rather than leaving you to remember where the promise was.

During any prayer session, tap Pray Like Paul on any prayer card to receive a Scripture prayer from Paul's letters over that person. Paul prayed for eternal things... wisdom, the knowledge of God's love, the strengthening of the inner person. Real verse text in your preferred translation, personalized with their name.

Choose from a collection of hand-crafted personas to give your workspace a look that fits your personality. From bold black denim to garden botanical... each persona transforms the colors, textures, and character of your entire app. Your choice is saved and follows you across devices.

Build a personal library of specific moments when God felt real. A guided 5-minute practice, rooted in Scripture and supported by brain science, trains your heart to return to gratitude on demand. An optional 30-day cycle deepens the practice over time... reshaping joy from an occasional feeling into a durable inner state.

Inspired by the Joy on Demand exercise in The Other Half of Church by Jim Wilder and Michel Hendricks.

Mark any prayer item as personal, shared with your spouse, or open to the whole family. When you pray together, the right items surface automatically. Each person still manages their own prayer life independently... with full privacy... but the shared context brings you into one accord.

Receive quiet, invitational nudges on your device... a soft reminder that your prayer window is approaching, or a gentle prompt to visit your accountability journal or gratitude practice. Choose exactly which notifications you want, down to the individual session. Messages are drawn from a curated library so every nudge feels fresh... never like an automated ping. Times display in your preferred 12-hour or 24-hour format throughout the app. On an iPhone or iPad, add PrayerMap to your home screen first... Apple only delivers push to installed apps.

PrayerMap is a progressive web app, so it lives on your home screen like any other app... with no app store, no download, and no update to chase. On iPhone or iPad, open app.prayermap.me in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. On Android, open it in Chrome and tap Install app. It launches full screen with its own icon, and on Apple devices this is also what switches push notifications on.
