Never Stop

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

We cannot spend all of our times on our knees, but it is possible to have a prayerful attitude at all times. This attitude is built upon acknowledging our dependence on God, realizing His presence within us, and determining to obey Him fully. Then we will find it natural to pray frequent, spontaneous, short prayers. A prayerful attitude is not a substitute for regular times of concentrated prayer, but is actually an outgrowth of those times.
 

Questions for further thought:
1. How have you responded to the temptation to stop praying? 

2. What did you learn as a result of dealing with this temptation?


Challenge: Share about a time you were tempted to quit praying with a trusted friend. Also, talk about the times when you persevered in prayer. How were those times different?
