Day 96: The Pattern of Worship – Praying

Scripture: They devoted themselves… to the prayers (Acts 2:42).

Reflection:
PRAYER WASN’T OPTIONAL … IT WAS OXYGEN.

Acts 2:42 — 3,000 new Christians on Pentecost devoted to four things: apostles’ teaching, fellowship, breaking bread, prayers.

“The prayers” = set times, together.

1 Thessalonians 5:17: pray without ceasing.

Your prayers rushed or relentless?
Name one need. Linger.

Prayerless = powerless.

Today’s Challenge:

Linger 10 minutes — alone or with someone.
No clock. Just communion.

Prayer: Father, pull me to my knees. I seek ceaseless prayer. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
