LESSON OUTLINE 1: THE NEED FOR PERSISTENT PRAYERS

A. ‘Plugged-in is to engage wholeheartedly in a task or to be connected. The need for ceaseless prayers is therefore emphasized in the Bible (1 Thess. 5:17) for various reasons. Some of these are:

  1. To keep the communication between God and his children open (Ps. 55:17). 
  2. To be filled with the power of the Holy Ghost and be bold (Acts 4:31).
  3. To be guided when there is a need to take a decision (Acts 1:24) or find direction (Gen. 24:12).
  4. To stand , though the days are evil (Eph. 5:16) and full of sin , error , subtle heretical seducers and sharp persecution (2 Timothy 3:13-14; Matt. 24:12-13). 
  5. For believers in Christ to enjoy the fulness of joy promised them by God all the time (John 16:23-24).
  6. To stay connected to the parent stock, as a branch, and be fruitful (John 15:5-6).
  7. To be able to withstand and confront the forces of darkness that seek to destroy God’s children (Eph. 6:12-13). 
  8. To cast out unclean spirits (Matt. 17:19-21).
  9. For restoration (Judges 16:28) and when agonised (1 Sam. 1:10). 
  10. To bring the flesh under (Matt. 16:41; 2 Cor. 10:3-5) and always look up unto God (Ps. 5:3).

  3. Put God first on any issue by contacting Him through prayers (Ps. 37:5). 
  4. Be actively involved in praying always (Col. 1:9). 
  5. Give yourself to prayers (Ps. 109:4). 
  6. Delight in God when praying (Job 22:26-27). 
  7. Pray with confidence that God hears and answers will come (John 5:14-15). 
  8. Pray everywhere (1 Timo. 2:8).
