The importance and necessity of praying are often underestimated. Many Christians are unaware of how important and necessary praying is. Because of that praying has faded into the background. However, praying is a fundamental part of the life of every born-again believer, who has become a new creation in Christ. A Christian can’t have a relationship with God and can’t stand and overcome in the spiritual fight without prayer.
Prayer is a Weapon in the spiritual war
But the end of all things is at hand: be ye therefore sober, and watch unto prayer (1 Peter 4:7)
Every Christian should have a prayer life. Praying is part of your relationship with Jesus Christ and the Father. Through Jesus Christ, you have access to the Father and may come before His throne.
Next to the Word of God, prayer is the most powerful weapon in spiritual warfare. Therefore prayer is important and necessary in the life of every Christian.
The devil knows the power of the prayer of the righteous.
With this knowledge in mind, the devil does everything in his power to make Christians passive and keep them away from prayer and attack prayer meetings.
It’s important as Christians to stay spiritually awake and watch and prevent the devil from accomplishing his destructive works.
Don’t think that your prayers can’t accomplish anything. Don’t be discouraged and don’t believe the lie of the devil that it’s pointless to pray, because prayer is significant.
