Faithful in Prayer

 

 In 1 Thessalonians 5:17, it says, Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you. He means don’t stop praying. We should always pray like David did when Bathsheba delivered a sick child who was close to death. David prayed and prayed in the house of God, and he mourned. Finally the child died and David got up, washed his face, changed his clothes, and went into the house of God to worship. He prayed right up to the point his child had died.


In Luke 18:1: And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint. That means praying without giving up. With thousands of people in our churches, someone is always sick or may have a disease like cancer. We should always pray because we don’t know what the Lord may decide to do if we continue to ask Him.


James 5:16 says, The effectual fervent prayer of the righteous man availeth much. We have to always pray. We pray at the beginning of our service; when we are building a church building, and at meetings we always pray for the Lord to help us make the right decisions and guide us in building.
