Pray like a saint!
When it comes to prayer, most believers pray on and off, on and off - sometimes they do - sometimes they don’t. Some pray whenever there’s a need, some are more disciplined; praying one hour every day.
Yet the apostle Paul spoke of another way in Ephesians and Romans. EPH. 6:18 says, “praying always” - Meaning: all the time, in all different ways, in different places, in different seasons.
“with supplication” - Meaning: incessant pleading until the prayer is answered.
“in the spirit” - Meaning: pray in the Holy Spirit in order to pray IN the will of God.
And in Romans 8:26,27… “and watching thereunto”- Meaning: like a watchman on the wall, keep looking for the answer to come - the yes or no, the manifestation or the revelation.
“with all perseverance” – Meaning: don’t give up, don’t get weary, keep on praying, don’t stop!
“and supplication for all the saints”.
The Apostle Paul called (referred to) all Born Again, true believers in Christ who were water baptized in Christ and Holy Spirit-filled by Christ – The SAINTS!
You are a saint, because of Christ! Pray like a Saint!
