 June 25 - Vignettes on Prayer

 

     This is the second snapshots on 1 Thess 5:16-18,.  Paul gives a simple thought.  He says pray without ceasing.  Pray continuously.  This means be in an attitude of prayer always.  Never forget the Lord is always with you.  Jesus gave this thought in Matt 28:20, when He said He would be with us even to the end of the age.  Being in an attitude of prayer means that any moment God can lay someone on your heart and you instantly pray for them.  It means at any moment you can shoot a prayer of to heaven on behalf o yourself or others.  Frank Lambaugh in his book Atomic prayers calls this praying in a new age.  Praying with ceasing is not an old thing or a new thing it is a thing for all the ages.  Today make it your aim and goal to be aware of the Lord and be willing to pray in a moment’s notice whatever God lays on your heart.  Someone could be in need of it today.
