Take Your Prayer Life Seriously

“…Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart…” Luke 18:1 (NKJV)

As a believer, do you know you are expected to have a prayer life? Are you aware that you are supposed to take your prayer life seriously? Well, in case you do not know, I am telling you now. Having a prayer life is a must if you truly want to walk with God, subdue the activities of darkness against you and live a life of dominion.

But sadly, many of God’s people do not have time to develop and cultivate a prayer life. They pray quite alright, but it is not yet a lifestyle. Beloved, God does not just want you to pray, He wants you to have a dedicated lifestyle. When we take a look at the life of our Lord Jesus Christ, He had a dedicated prayer life. At one time, the Bible says “…. it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God…” Luke 6:12 (NKJV).

Another time the Bible also recorded saying, “…when He had sent the multitudes away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray. Now when evening came, He was alone there…” Matthew 14:23 (NKJV). Now, did you see that? He didn’t just pray, He enjoyed praying and from time to time, He would just remain in the place of prayer. No wonder, His ministry on earth was exceptional.

Beloved, if you want your life to be glorious and impactful, I encourage you to make a conscious decision to have a prayer life and take it seriously. As simple as this information might sound, it holds the key to your consistent victory. So, I admonish you to take it seriously and do the needful. Remember, the Bible says, “…Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart…” Luke 18:1 (NKJV).
