Ephesians 1v16
…do not cease to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my prayers:
Thanksgiving and an ever unceasing prayer is one of the many expectations that have been committed to us as Believers in these times. Indeed, “…can the wedding guests mourn as long as the bridegroom is around?…(see Matthew 9v15) ” In prayers, we are called to lay our mourns, thanking God for everything all the way.
Prayer is a platform where we have the empowerment to decide what should happen in our world. In prayers, the Holy Spirit legitimately finds a way to come and help us take all the decisions (even the ‘hard’ ones) that will promote the coming Kingdom and our safety in this present chaos.
A major characteristic in our prayer times should be the opportunity to elaborately express thanksgiving, honour and adoration to the Most High through His Spirit that sustains us everyday.
While we pray, we should also always keep our friends in rememberance and serve as intercessors for them as well. And the Good Lord will help us all in Jesus’ Name!
Shalom.
