2 Samuel 1:1-27; Micah 3:1-4:8; Romans 9:30-10:21

Pray without ceasing. 1 Thessalonians 5:17
Moreover as for me, God forbid that I should sin against the Lord in ceasing to pray for you. 1 Samuel 12:23

To pray without ceasing is not going through life with our eyes closed and head bowed. Some suggest that it is an attitude of constant prayer, which is a good practice to follow. The prophet Samuel felt so strongly about persisting in prayer that he said it would be a sin against the Lord to cease praying. Pray about everything. Pray according to God’s will. And, whatever you do, don’t stop praying! Our repetition in prayer is not vain repetition. —Rex Trogdon

Don’t stop praying! The Lord is nigh; don’t stop praying!
He’ll hear your cry, God has promised, and He is true,
Don’t stop praying! He’ll answer you. —Edna R. Worrell
