How Much Ought We Pray?

The bible tells us that we ought to pray and not faint. The bible tells us to pray always! (Luke 18:1 1 Thess 5:17)

There isn’t such a thing as much prayer! We shall never reach to its summit nor apex or zenith but there’s growth the more we do it. Something about us changes!

I have come to realize though, that, one of the signs to show that we won’t faint when we pray, that we will pray always without ceasing… Is when prayer becomes a reflex action!

A reflex action is involuntary. It’s like blinking! You can’t tell you’re next blink. It just happened right now! You can’t control your breathing, even in deepest of slumber, it still goes on!

When you wake up and your lips are already proclaiming God’s goodness, When you murmur spiritual tongues uncontrallably in a taxi or on that boda… That’s it!

As you do the dishes, and your mouth just starts, when the day is trying to be funny and your tongue just can’t settle, that’s it!

I’ve heard men worship & pray as they dream. That’s it! The idea is it’s the Spirit, and only is it by Him, that we are able to pray endlessly without ceasing!

It being involuntary means its not you behind it’s control but The Holy Ghost.

So if you ask me again ‘Biggie, how much ought we pray…?’

I’ll reply,

“Pray until It’s a reflex action!”
