And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the LORD’s people. Ephesians 6:18
Prior to this verse, Paul gives perfect instruction for victory in defensive spiritual warfare, the Full Armor of God. Don’t go to battle without your gear! Protect your soul but then do a little warfare on the enemy. Verse 18 turns to the offense. Pray! The one thing satan, the enemy, does not want you to access is the power and strength found only in prayer.
Your ‘go to’ reaction to every stimuli in your life should be prayer. On all occasions pray. Worship, praise, implore, petition, confess, commune and intercede, but PRAY!
We’ve got our game plan, offense and defense, we’re set for the win!
Have a great weekend!
