Pray Without Ceasing By Andrew Murray

“I give myself unto prayer.”—Ps. cix. 4.
“We will give ourselves continually to prayer.”—Acts vi. 4.
“Be not rash with thy mouth, and let not thine heart be hasty to utter anything
before God.”—Eccles. v. 2.
“And He continued all night in prayer to God.”—Luke vi. 12.
Time is one of the chief standards of value. The time we give is a proof of the
interest we feel.
We need time with God—to realize His presence; to wait for Him to make Himself
known; to consider and feel the needs we plead for; to take our place in Christ; to
pray till we can believe that we have received. Take time in prayer, and pray down
blessing on the mission work of the Church.

what to pray.—For God’s Spirit on our Missionaries
“What the world needs to-day is, not only more missionaries, but the outpouring
of God’s Spirit on everyone whom He has sent out to work for Him in the foreign
field.”
“Ye shall receive power, when the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be
My witnesses unto the uttermost parts of the earth.”—Acts i. 8.
God always gives His servants power equal to the work He asks of them. Think of
the greatness and difficulty of this work,—casting out Satan out of his strongholds,
—and pray that everyone who takes part in it may receive and do all his work in
the power of the Holy Ghost. Think of the difficulties of your missionaries, and
pray for them.
