Therefore, Keep Praying
Dr. John K. Mathew
Apostle Paul with no grain of ambiguity demands Christians to "rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances" (1 Thess.5:17) because it is God's will for all of us.
'Pray continually', means that we should be in contact with God at all times and in all places. Prayer is an attitude that should influence every area of our lives.
According to Manfred Roeseler, "Prayer enables us to express our union with the Lord uniquely, deepens our relationship with Him, and strengthens our faith. Therefore, it is impossible to be a Christian and not pray." That's why our Lord Jesus Christ said, Pray always and do not give up.
Check out this. A worried young man stepped into an elevator to go to the second floor of a hospital where his father was in the intensive care unit. Although the button labeled '2' was already lighted, he pushed it again. A doctor behind him said, "Pushing the button someone has already pushed is like reminding God you are still there when he has not answered your prayer immediately." As the man thought of his father in intensive care, it was comforting to know that God does encourage believers to continue to pray the same prayer until he answers."
"Ask and it will be given to you: Seek and you will find: Knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; The one who seeks finds; and the one who knocks, the door will be opened. " Therefore, keep praying.
