"Continue in prayer."



"Continue in prayer."
Colossians 4:2

It is interesting to remark how large a portion of Sacred Writ is occupied with the subject of prayer, 
either in furnishing examples, enforcing precepts, 
or pronouncing promises. 

We scarcely open the Bible before we read, 
"Then began men to call upon the name of the Lord;"
 and just as we are about to close the volume, 
the "Amen" of an earnest supplication meets our ear. 

Instances are plentiful. 
Here we find a wrestling Jacob--there a Daniel who prayed three times a day--
and a David who with all his heart called upon his God.

 On the mountain we see Elias; in the dungeon Paul and Silas. 

We have multitudes of commands, and myriads of promises. What does this teach us, 
but the sacred importance and necessity of prayer? 
We may be certain that whatever God has made prominent in his Word, 
he intended to be conspicuous in our lives.

 If he has said much about prayer, 
it is because he knows we have much need of it. 
So deep are our necessities, 
that until we are in heaven we must not cease to pray. 

Dost thou want nothing? 
Then, I fear thou dost not know thy poverty. 
Hast thou no mercy to ask of God? 
Then, may the Lord's mercy show thee thy misery!
 A prayerless soul is a Christless soul. 

Prayer is the lisping of the believing infant, 
the shout of the fighting believer,
 the requiem of the dying saint falling asleep in Jesus. 

It is the breath, the watchword, the comfort, the strength, the honour of a Christian. 
If thou be a child of God, thou wilt seek thy Father's face, 
and live in thy Father's love. 

Pray that this year thou mayst be holy, humble, zealous, 
and patient; have closer communion with Christ, 
and enter oftener into the banqueting-house of his love. 

Pray that thou mayst be an example and a blessing unto others, 
and that thou mayst live more to the glory of thy Master. 

The motto for this year must be, 
"Continue in prayer."

IMPORTANT NOTICE 


An update on Google Friend Connect
1 week ago by A Googler
In 2011, we announced the retirement of Google Friend Connect for all non-Blogger sites. We made an exception for Blogger to give readers an easy way to follow blogs using a variety of accounts. Yet over time, we’ve seen that most people sign into Friend Connect with a Google Account. So, in an effort to streamline, in the next few weeks we’ll be making some changes that will eventually require readers to have a Google Account to sign into Friend Connect and follow blogs. 

As part of this plan, starting the week of January 11, we’ll remove the ability for people with Twitter, Yahoo, Orkut or other OpenId providers to sign in to Google Friend Connect and follow blogs. At the same time, we’ll remove non-Google Account profiles so you may see a decrease in your blog follower count.


We encourage you to tell affected readers (perhaps via a blog post), that if they use a non-Google Account to follow your blog, they need to sign up for a Google Account, and re-follow your blog. With a Google Account, they’ll get blogs added to their Reading List, making it easier for them to see the latest posts and activity of the blogs they follow.


We know how important followers are to all bloggers, but we believe this change will improve the experience for both you and your readers.

Amen..
