Luke 18:1 KJV
And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint
As God gives us grace we will spend time to put in perspective the life of prayer and why believers must pray!
Years ago I will say humourously that what makes a man a man is prayer. Not masculine traits but prayer. If you have not started to pray, you are not yet a man.
Prayer is a fundamental part of our Christian experience. It is the platform by which we can communicate directly to God.
It does not matter how many times you have been praying, make sure you never stop praying. If prayer has not helped you get anything, believe me, prayerlessness will not get it for you.
The word of God is clear, Pray without ceasing ( 1 Thes 5:17 )
It may look like your prayers are not being answered, keep praying. Even Elijah tried seven times before the sign of rain came.
Never give up in prayer!
It may look like your case is deteriorating, keep praying.
It may look like there is no more hope for you sir, keep praying.
It may look like your answers will not come quickly, press on in prayer.
The Bible records that Anna the prophetess served the Lord with prayer and fasting, day and night ( Luke 2:36-38 )
If Jesus could appraise your prayer life, what will be his testimony?
It is time to return to that prayer room. The room where we win wars before they start. The room where we fight without guns. The room where we give commands without having to plead with the devil!
If satan stops you from praying he does not need to do anything else to you, even with time, you will begin to live in sin!
As the Bishop will always say, what prayer cannot do, more prayer will do it. What more prayer cannot do, more more prayer will do it. What more more prayers cannot do, more more more prayer will do it!
Today, tomorrow and until we meet Jesus in glory, never stop to fire prayer!
Till we arrive at the point of the full manifestation of what God has said concerning us, we will continue to share some of these things as we journey.
