30 Christian Faith Journal Prompts To Elevate Your Faith & Get Closer To God
Okay, my loves! Today we are going to talk about using faith journal promptsDo you ever ask where God is when everything in your life seems to be going wrong?
I know I have plenty of times! Sometimes it seems like God isn’t even trying to answer our prayers even though He tells us to pray without ceasing.
It can get to be so frustrating that we start doubting Him.
Thoughts like “Does He hear our prayers?” “And if He does, hear them, does He care” begins to run through our minds.
These doubts and uncertainties are one of the main reasons why I love Christian journaling.
Writing down your prayers, thoughts cares, and fears in a journal is a wonderful way to be able to reflect back on your faith journey and remind yourself that God does indeed care and answer your prayers!
And using Christian journaling prompts is a great way to spark some inspiration when you aren’t sure what to write. Let’s learn about some of the spiritual benefits of using a Christian journal.

– Benefits Of Christian Journaling For Spiritual Growth.
If you’re looking for a way to grow closer to God, Christian journaling is one of the best ways to do it.
Why?
Because this reflective practice can provide many benefits, including regular opportunities for reflection and prayer, increased self-awareness, and understanding of God’s will for your life.
I don’t know how many times I’ve felt like God didn’t hear my prayers. But then when I looked back at one of my prayer or Christian journals I saw all the prayers that He had answered or all of the fears that He had allayed.
Here are some other benefits of faith journaling:
1) It provides a regular opportunity for reflection and conversation with God
By taking time each day to journal about your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, you create a space for regular communication with God.
This can help you grow closer to Him and deepen your relationship with Him.
2) It helps you process your thoughts and emotions in a healthy way
Journaling can be a great outlet for emotions that are bottled up inside. It can also help you better understand yourself, your thoughts, and your feelings.
3) It encourages spiritual growth
When you document your journey with God and track your progress in faith, you are more likely to grow in your spiritual life.
Christian journaling can also help you identify areas where you need to make changes or grow in your relationship with God.
4) It can be a tool for answered prayer
When you journal about your prayers, you can look back and see how God has answered them. This can be a great encouragement to continue praying and seeking God’s will for your life.
5) It is a way to document your faith journey
As you journal about your daily walk with God, you create a record of your faith journey that you can look back on and reflect on in the future. This can be a valuable tool for yourself and future generations.

-What Supplies Do You Need To Get Started With Christian Writing Prompts?
If you’ve decided you want to start a Christian journal but are worried that it might be expensive then fear not!
Starting a journal is as cheap or expensive as you want it to be.
You can go all out getting all sorts of creative journaling supplies like I talk about here.
But honestly, a simple Christian journal with a scripture on the cover or a pretty Bible journaling printable will do.
Below are a few journaling supplies you might want to consider:
- Journal: You can find journals specifically for Christian journaling, or you can use a regular notebook with an inspirational scripture or quote on the cover. Or you can consider using a sketchbook or bullet dot grid journal if you want something more creative and artsy. Learn more about different types of journals here.
- Pens: Use whatever pens you like to write with. But if you want something special, there are all sorts of Bible journaling pens and markers available. I cover some pens and pencils in this post.
- Bible: Obviously, you’ll need a Bible to do any Bible journaling. You can use a physical Bible or Bible study apps and programs that allow you to journal alongside the text. I just got a journaling Bible called the Beautiful Word Bible. It has beautiful scripture illustrations and spaces in the margin for you to write journaling notes or to draw. I love it!
- Bible Or Faith Journaling Printables: Another option is to create a Bible journaling binder using journaling printables. Journaling printables are beautifully designed digital files that you can buy online and instantly download on your home computer. I have some in my HAYC shop if you want to take a look.
-What Other Journaling Supplies Might You Want To Start Christian Journal Writing?
In addition to the supplies listed above, you might also want to consider some of these optional items in your faith writing journey:
- Scrapbooking supplies: If you want to add pictures or other embellishments to your journaling, scrapbooking supplies can come in handy. I went a little Hobby Lobby crazy a few years ago so I have tons of scrapbooking supplies that I can use for journaling too!
- Stamps: Rubber stamps with Christian sayings or scriptures make it easy to add a touch of personality to your journaling. Here are some gorgeous stamps that I love.
- Bible tabs: These help you quickly find the passages you’re referencing while journaling. I’m tempted to get these…although I do love to try to find books of the Bible on my own.
- Colored pencils: Adding some beauty and color to your journaling can make it more fun and inviting.
- Washi tape: This decorative tape is perfect for adding borders or accents to your journaling pages.
- Stickers: Stickers are a great way to add visual interest to your journaling pages and show off your personality.
