“Pray ·in [or in dependence on] the Spirit at all times with all ·kinds of prayers [prayers and requests], asking for everything you need. To do this you must always be ·ready [alert] ·and never give up [with all perseverance]. Always pray for all ·God’s people [the saints].” Ephesians 6:18 EXB
REFLECTION
Prayerful persistence prevails. I have found this to be true in every aspect of my life to date.
Over the years, I have been through more fiery situations than I can count, but as I drew near to the Lord and prayerfully pondered His Word, I was strengthened to persevere, and by His grace, many battles have been won and countless difficulties overcome. So let’s draw and stay near to the One who made, knows and loves us best, that we may be equipped to prayerfully persevere and be blessed, and a blessing to many, glorifying our Father in Heaven.
PRAYER POEM:
LORD, direct my gaze and teach me Your ways.
Infuse me with faith and bless me from above that I may speak the truth in love.
May Your songs of deliverance be heard and every detail of my life express Your Word.
In Jesus’ name, amen.
