2. Devote Yourself To Prayer

“Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart. Do not forget to pray.” Colossians 4:2-3 NLT

Your eyes do not have to be closed. Pray as you go. Pray continually

God wants us to pray with a thankful heart.

Pray with an alert awareness of the true enemy, Satan.

If you’re not careful, it’s easy to forget to pray.

Heaven deserves our thanks.

God wants you to literally be devoted to prayer.

Lord, remind me to pray; don’t let the cares of this word keep me from this most important task. In Jesus Name, Amen.

1. Learn To Pray

“One day he was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said, ‘Master, teach us to pray just as John taught his disciples.’ ” Luke 11:1 The Message

The disciples never asked to learn how to preach, but they recognized how important it was to learn to pray.

God notices your devotion to prayer.

Satan does not want you to learn to pray.

Jesus practiced regular, often extended, prayer.

Prayer is literally one of the most important things you can ever learn.

Lord, help ME to learn to pray. Help me to trust You as I begin learning how to have a continual, daily, personal relationship. In Jesus Name, Amen.
