Pray Always

Then Jesus used this story to teach his followers that they should always pray and never lose hope.
- Luke 18:1 (NIV)
The Lord stressed prayer as an important matter. In many cases, the Lord instructed on prayer as a means and method by which to live in tune with the Father. He even demonstrated the importance of prayer in His own life. But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed (Luke 5:16, NIV). Even when He turned over tables and drove out the money-changers, Jesus adressed prayer as the main activity that should take place in the house of God.
Prayer was on the Lord's agenda. It is simple and clear. Therefore, prayer should be on our agenda as His followers. We need to seek Him in prayer. We need to seek His guidance through prayer. We need to simply pray. By prayer, we stay in touch with the Master. It is through our prayers that we submit all to Him. Prayer may not change the outcome but it can surely change our outlook. It can give hope to hopeless and help to helpless, even healing to the hurting.
