Hi Folks,
I hope you had a good weekend! The dveot. for today is on having a balanced prayer life.
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 states, "Rejoice evermore. Pray without ceasing.
In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you"
Now, to "pray without ceasing" does not mean we have to be on our knees 24/7.
We have jobs and duties to attend to in this life and God expects us to work for our living
(2 Thessalonians 3:10), but we are supposed to remain in a prayerful state though our day.
For example, lifting up prayer requests as they come to mind or having conversations with God in our hearts as we go through the day, those little hear cries that only He knows about.
Now, I would encourage you to read the short passage in red that the devot. gives right before you begin to read, as background to understand it better. Basically it's talking about praising God for who He is (powerful, full of justice, and other traits to read about in Scripture), as you pray.
I pray that the devot. teaches you something useful this week. Lord bless you and yours!
