“Pray without ceasing” I Thess 5:17
Satan’s attack is unceasing, what’s your counter attack? Ask God for help… unceasingly! Every actiosn, words, thoughts are more than just ‘dealing with the situation’. It is a spiritual warfare! So long as you are tempted to sin by 1 wrong thought, word or action, Satan wins! How weak we are, when facing such attacks? How sinful we can be, trying to deal with it by ourselves!
Praying is to ask God for help. He listens, he cares, he is in control. The realisation of having sinned is like a pail of cold water splashing unto your soul. You instantly wake up to the fact that you failed God, yet again! Why do we allow ourselves to reach that stage, when we could have prayed the minute we need to make a decision to react? Why do we not rely on God for strength, wisdom and ability? Truly, we are sinners.
Pray! Pray unceasingly, pray without stopping, ask God for help. He listens, He answers, He protects. This is His promise to us. Such blessed assurance!
