Devote yourself to prayer

Devote yourself to prayer

Col 4:2
Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful. And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains.

Luke 18:1
Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.

Isa 40:31
31 but those who hope in the Lord
    will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
    they will run and not grow weary,
    they will walk and not be faint.

Lk 11: 9, 10

“So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 10 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.

We learn the following from the above verses

1)    Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.

2)    Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.

3)    Those who hope in the Lord
    will renew their strength.

4)    They will soar on wings like eagles;
    they will run and not grow weary,
    they will walk and not be faint.

5)    Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 

        6)     For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened.
