1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 (NKJV) 16 Rejoice always, 17 pray without ceasing, 18 in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
We have to train and teach our flesh to pray, not just for the things we or others need, but for what the Holy Spirit is leading us to pray for.
Most times as believers, we miss this very important part. We totally leave Him (the Holy Spirit) out.
We may not always have things to pray for, so we think we don’t have to pray at all. We think everything is good in our lives and around us, so why bother?
However, the Bible says to pray continually, without ceasing. That means that even when we think we don’t have anything at all to pray for, keep praying.
And how do we do this? By the leading of the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit knows what we need to pray for before we even pray. He will guide us and put on our hearts things we have no idea about.
He knows what others need. He knows what the church needs. He knows what our country needs, our kids need and this world as a whole needs.
Be listening, be watching, and be ready. Don’t ever think that just because all is going well for us there is no need to pray.
Give God our time, humble our hearts and be ready to pray at all times, without ceasing.
