The man who is in the habit of secret prayer will reap public success, success in his home, success in his marriage, success with his children. For he who is connected to the vine won’t shrivel up. That’s where the LORD has brought me.
So, don’t try to win in an argument with your spouse. Pray it out. Prayer trumps the need for winning. Don’t try to show who is the boss with your children; instead show them who’s the LORD. Then He will affirm the earthly priest of the home.
Don’t try to prove a point to your boss if it leads nowhere. Pray it out. Don’t seek to show who knows more in religious debates. “Knowledge puffeth up” (1 Corinthians 8:1). Pray it out.
Pray. Pray. Pray. Pray and give thanks! Pray. It’s a command from God!
“Pray without ceasing.”
(1 Thessalonians 5:17)
