Meditation isn’t all that complicated. Read. Examine. Think. What does it say? What does it mean? Does it apply to me? If so, how does it apply?
Is there a SIN to confess?
Is there a PROMISE to claim?
Is there an ATTITUDE to change?
Is there a COMMAND to obey?
Is there an EXAMPLE to follow?
Is there a PRAYER to pray?
Is there an ERROR to avoid?
Is there a TRUTH to believe?
Is there SOMETHING for which to praise God?
When you’re done, record that you interacted with this passage in some way by tapping either “Last Prayed” or “Prayed.” (See Hand-2 below. Swipe from right to left to view the next entry and repeat. (See Hand-3 below.)
For new users, Mix 1 in the top drawer is set up to display twelve different entries each day. Continue to swipe through all of them so you can fully experience the potential of using Mix 1 each day. When you get to the twelfth and last entry in the mix, you can either tap the “Home” icon to return to the dashboard. (One more swipe will return you to the first entry of the twelve.)
When your have finished meditating on the first entry and tapped “Prayed”, you can A) swipe to the next entry in the same folder or B) move to the next folder.
Congratulations! You have learned all you need to start using Prayer Prompter!
The entries are displayed in rotation so you get different ones each day. Once an entry is displayed, it gets moved to the back of the folder so it won’t return until all of the other entries in that folder have been displayed. If you want an entry to come back more frequently, you can change its “Rotation Speed” in Entry Settings. Just tap the pencil to go to Entry Settings.
Don’t forget to record those entries that you interacted with in some way; by reading it, thinking about it, maybe making it your prayer.
When you are done with this entry, swipe from right to left to go to the next entry in this folder.
When you are done with this folder, return to the dashboard. You can tap any folder tile or mix bar. Swipe from right to left to view more folders.

If you already have a Dropbox account, setting up the Dropbox backup and restore capability in Prayer Prompter only takes a minute or two. If you don’t already have a free Dropbox account, registering only takes a couple of minutes more. Either way, open Global Settings by tapping the settings wheel on the dashboard.
