Pray without ceasing [November 12,2022 ]

Daily Word 🇬🇭

Pray without ceasing
Jeremiah 33:3
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things you do not know

The verse above reminds me of a song by Shirley Caesar, it says

Jesus, Oh Jesus
Oh how I love calling your name
Jesus, Oh Jesus
How I love calling your name
Sometimes it was in the morning
Sometimes late at night
But when I got on my knees
Everything was alright
Ooh Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
Oh how I love calling your name.

The Prophet Jeremiah assures us that we can call on the Lord anytime, anywhere and countless number of times and He will respond.

The song says we can call in the morning or late at night. And I believe in the afternoon, evening and at dawn. Just call on the Lord when you need to.

We need to pray without ceasing. Jesus is only a prayer away.

1 Thessalonians 5:17
Pray without ceasing

This verse from the new testament also emphasizes that we should pray constantly, without stopping.

The bible says the devil is at work 24/7 so we also have to pray 24/7.

1 Peter 5:8 says:

Be sober, vigilant for your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion seeking whom He may devour.

If you do not pray he will destroy you.
God be with you

How can I apply the word to my life?
1. Make a conscious effort to pray frequently each day

Prayer
Think about the words of this song

…. Only a prayer away
Only a prayer away
Only a prayer away
Jesus is only a prayer away
So if you feel the need to talk to somebody
Who will hear every word you say
Just open up and talk to Jesus
For He is only a prayer away
Jesus is only a prayer away
Amen
