The Prayer Life [Annotated, Updated]: Persevering in Prayer

by Andrew Murray

After all the other parts of the armor had been named, Paul adds, With all prayer and supplication in the Spirit (Ephesians 6:18). Without prayer, the helmet of salvation, the shield of faith, and the sword of the Spirit, which is God’s Word, have no power. All depends on prayer. May God teach us to firmly believe and live this!
