Title : Prayer Feast
"Pray without ceasing. 1 Thessalonians 5:17"
Devotion : The apostle Paul wanted the saints in Thessalonica to develop the attitude of always loving to commune with God. He also wanted them to know that prayer is a lifestyle and not an event. Finally, the apostle Paul wanted them to know that the Holy Ghost is always looking forward to meeting them at the point of prayer. God is never tired of listening to His children's prayers. In fact, the prayers of His children are like incense (Psalms 141:2). The children of God need to feast on prayer: prayer should be enjoyed and looked forward to. Dear reader, do you enjoy praying to God?

AN OUTWARD SHOW OF AN INNER TRUTH

AN OUTWARD SHOW OF AN INNER TRUTH .* *Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the LORD (Psalm 134:2).* Have you ever wondered why oftentimes, people look towards the sky when we say, “Let us pray?” It’s actually an outward show of an inner truth, of something spiritual, because the Father isn’t in the sky but inside us; He lives in you. So, don’t get confused by the motions and outward expressions and gesticulations.  *Psalm 141:2* says, *“Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.”* When David, a prophet of God, wrote this, he was well acquainted with the priesthood ministry of the Old Testament in the old tabernacle. He spoke prophetically and likened the evening sacrifice in the Old Testament to the lifting of our hands in worship today.  Also, the Bible says, *“Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the LORD”* *(Psalm 134:2).* The Apostle Paul reiterated the same thing; he understoo...

*DON’T CONDEMN OTHERS

 .* *Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven (Matthew 5:16).* In your life, don’t be too quick to find fault with others. Don’t give in to the urge to condemn. The Bible says the Lord Jesus has been  *“…ordained by God to be Judge of the living and the dead”*  *(Acts 10:42 NKJV).* He alone is the true Judge, and He’s rich in mercy. There may be some people around you, perhaps, even in your local church that may not be living right; don’t judge them. Instead, be the light that wins them over. That’s what Jesus said in our theme verse.  One of the reasons people may not be living right where you are may be that your light isn’t shining brightly enough. When a Christian condemns other Christians about their way of life, he may think he’s being spiritual when it’s actually an expression of carnality. Don’t write anyone off because of their errors; Jesus also paid the price for their mis...
