Choose the perfect inspirational prayer quotes for any occasion.

Prayer is an instrumental part of nearly every documented faith. It can be heard in the form of blessings, litanies, free prayer, formula prayer, and more. Some people pray at specific times according to centuries-old traditions, and others pray when the need for peace or guidance overcomes them.

Prayer quotes are also useful because they remind us of the power of prayer. They give us pause to look at our motives for prayer, too, not to mention our expectations from it.

Reinvigorating your prayer practices can be as easy as picking one of these prayer quotes. Which ones resonate with you? History’s leaders, disciples, poets, and even scientists have left a legacy of prayer quotes to choose from. Share them in cards or letters to loved ones, flyers or banners for community events, or collages or posters for personal inspiration. It’s all easy in Adobe Express — no experience required.

Morning prayer quotes to start each day with recognition.

Positive prayer quotes can start the day with a needed moment of gratitude. Some religions have the tradition of morning prayer, and others practice it by choice because of how it shapes the day.

Starting each morning with prayer might be a routine worth exploring if you don’t already do it. The simple fact that you woke up today is something worth showing thanks for.

Choose the best morning prayer quotes for you, then imagine what they could do if you keep them front-and-center. A poster or personal photo collage could provide daily inspiration that spurs prayer, reflection, and an improved mood.

Tips to put prayer quotes to use.

Prayer takes so many forms. It can be silent meditation, the singing of worship songs, writing in a prayer journal, or reciting familiar prayers at the dinner table.

Just like prayer is an opportunity to express oneself, one’s beliefs, and the traditions one comes from, how and where prayer quotes are used is another part of the message.

For example, consider:

Exercise: the daily prayer maker.

Prayer trackers provide devoted prayers or prayer quotes for each day of the week. You can make your own in a matter of minutes, and it can be completely personalized to your lifestyle, needs, and beliefs.

First, think of what words you associate with each day of the week. Is Monday when you feel like you’re “thrown into the fire?” Is Thursday the day of work meetings? Is Saturday the day you go out?

Think of two or three specific words you associate with each day. Then, look for prayer quotes that fit each word (and therefore each day) based on those associations.

Finally, write down your top:

Put all your favorite daily quotes onto a collage or a calendar (both of which are easy to make in Adobe Express), and put it up wherever you can see it every day.

Adobe Express can help.

Adobe Express has templates and customization tools to put your favorite prayer quotes to work. If you want to use prayer quotes in cards, letters, posters, banners, photo collages, flyers, social media posts, or other creative projects, Adobe Express makes it as simple as picking a template and personalizing it, or making your own idea with easy-to-use tools.
