Types of Prayer: Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, Supplication

Adoration is a prayer that praises God's goodness and majesty, acknowledging that there is no equal to Him.
Physical demonstration through prostration was usual in the worship of Jehovah in the act of reverence.
Adoration is the highest type of worship, together with the visible symbols and postures that express the adoring attitude of the creature in the presence of his Creator.
Adoration is important for two reasons - reminding us of God's character and attributes, and reminding us of who it is that loves and cares for us.
Confession is a searching prayer of the heart where we bare our souls before God about our sins and shortcomings.
Confession involves acknowledging personal sin to God and then celebrating the forgiveness provided through the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus.
Repentance can bring forgiveness and new life; sincere confession before God will be met with forgiveness.
Thanksgiving is a prayer that recognizes the good things God gives us and offers thanks for them.
Thanksgiving is thanking God for being God and offering thanks to God for His benevolence (mercy, joy, love, salvation, and giving).
Prayers of thanksgiving help us cultivate a deep sense of gratitude for all that God has done for us, shaping us into thankful people at our core.
Supplication is requesting God to do something, either for yourself or on behalf of somebody else, and in all things, praying that God's will be done.
Supplications are often divided between those requests we make for ourselves (petitions) and those requests we make on behalf of other people (intercessions).
