A Day of Prayer

Wisdom to Change

Pray without ceasing 1 Thessalonians 5:17


Why do we recognize a specific day to pray when the bible says pray without ceasing? Pray without ceasing doesn’t mean we should walk around all day mumbling prayers. Not at all! This means we are to live in a constant attitude of prayer as we go about our daily routines. When we develop a life of prayer, it becomes our first instinct when challenges come up.


God listens to every prayer. He is very interested in every aspect of your life. Your loving Father invites you to pray about whatever concerns you, interests you, confuses you, frightens you, or in any way touches or challenges your life. Whatever it is a lost set of keys or forgotten information that needs to be mentally retrieved both are worthy requests.


God has called us to be a people of prayer. When we communicate on this level it creates an intimate fellowship with the Savior. Through prayer we discover the goodness and faithfulness of a loving God. He hears every prayer no matter where we pray, just be sure to pray.


Prayer is life’s greatest time saver. It’s a saver of heartache, pain, discouragement, restlessness, unforgiveness, worry and doubt. Only through prayer can we tap into the limitless resources of God. And it’s only by praying can we see His promises fulfilled in our lives. Have you been praying on a daily basis? If not, start today to make prayer a way of life.


Have a Beautiful Day
