Have you ever thought what would happen to the prayer life of an atheist if they fell off a thousand foot cliff? My suspicion is that they’d find a way to pray somewhere before the 999th foot of the drop! A fake prayer life rises and falls on the turn of circumstances, but a consistent walk with Christ will always be marked by persistent prayer. For the Christ follower with authentic faith such a thing isn’t even difficult–it’s automatic. When they’re in trouble, they pray. When they’re happy, they pray. When things are going on as usual, they pray! Though it’s a tough pill to swallow, any less of a prayer life is a sign that the heart of the believer is still not completely sold-out to the Lord. Here are a couple of hints to help develop such a faith:
1. Know God and trust only in His Son, Jesus Christ.
2. Know that Jesus is coming again soon.
3. Know that the stakes are very high!
“Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.” Luke 18:1
