A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

“Helps to Intercession” has been written to help believers to follow the Scriptural command to “Pray without ceasing” (1 Thess, 5:17). But how can we do this, you may ask, when we are surrounded by the cares of daily life? We may as well ask how a mother can love her child without ceasing; how the eyelid can hold itself ready to protect the eye without ceasing; or how we can breathe and feel and hear without ceasing. All of these ceaseless activities are the functions of a healthy, natural life. And if our spiritual life is healthy, under the full power of the Holy Spirit, praying without ceasing will be natural as well.

Does praying without ceasing refer to continual acts of prayer, in which we are to persevere till we obtain, or to the spirit of prayerfulness that should animate us all day long? It includes both. The example of our Lord Jesus shows us this. We have to enter our closet for special seasons of prayer, we are at times to persevere there in persistent prayer. We are also to walk all day long in God’s presence, with the whole heart set upon heavenly things.

Know your calling; begin your work. Give yourself wholly to it, and before you know it you will find this attitude of “praying always” (Eph. 6:18) without you. Just be sure to do your work. Christ chose you and appointed you to pray for others.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Pray Without Ceasing. Who can do this? How can one do it who is surrounded by the cares of daily life? How can a mother love her child without ceasing? How can the eyelid without ceasing hold itself ready to protect the eye? How can I breathe and feel and hear without ceasing? Because all these are the functions of a healthy, natural life.

And so, if the spiritual life be healthy, under the full power of the Holy Spirit, praying without ceasing will be natural. Pray Without Ceasing. Does it refer to continual acts of prayer, in which we are to persevere till we obtain, or to the spirit of prayerfulness that should animate us all the day? It includes both. The example of our Lord Jesus shows us this. We have to enter our closet for special seasons of prayer; we are at times to persevere there in importunate prayer. We are also all the day to walk in God's presence, with the whole heart set upon heavenly things. Without set times of prayer, the spirit of prayer will be dull and feeble. Without the continual prayerfulness, the set times will not avail.
