THE UNSTOPPABLE CHRISTIAN (3)
*WISDOM FOR TODAY*
*THE UNSTOPPABLE CHRISTIAN (3)*
*Scripture Treasure.*
Luke 18:1 *And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;*
*Insight and Highlight.*
Luke 11:1 *And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.*
*Scripture Commentaries.*
The importance of prayer can not be overemphasized.
Jesus prayed, He taught us to pray, Luke 11:1, and He admonished us to pray, Luke 18:1.
If only you know you are unstoppable when you pray as a Christian, you would appreciate the importance of prayer.
There are many assertions of warfare that encourage us to pray.
First, in warfare, it is a common saying that
he who kneels before God will stand before men.
Second, another common saying is that if you neglect to pray, you will be a prey for Satan.
Third, so also is the saying that if there is a people to pray, there is a God who answers.
You are not equipped as a Christian if you neglect to pray.
It is your spiritual food without which you can never survive the daily war against Satan.
It is a part of your warfare best explained as you equip yourself in a battle ready uniform in full combat gear.
Eph 6:17 *And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:*
Remember, being a friend of Jesus is a qualification to answer prayers.
lf you do not have Christ, you will fall into crisis.
Be on the defensive and put on the defensive!
*Remorse Corner.*
Never neglect prayer. Every day is war against the devil. Prepare yourself.
Eph 6:10-12
*Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.*
*Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.*
*Call to Word action.*
Eph 6:12-13 *For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.*
*Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.*
*The Christian clarion duty.*
Do not allow Satan to catch you unawares!
Eph 6:14-16 *Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;*
*And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;*
*Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.*
*Prayer.*
Lord, help me to be prayerful. Let me not be discouraged to pray. Holy Spirit, please help me in Jesus name.
Good morning all, and have a blessed day.
God bless you.
