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

by Andrew Murray

What a study for the inner chamber! These passages teach us that unceasing prayer formed a large part of Paul’s service in the gospel. We see the high spiritual aim that he set before himself in his work on behalf of believers, and the tender and self-sacrificing love with which he ever continued to think of the church and its needs. Let us ask God to bring each one of us, and all the ministers of His Word, to a life in which such prayer is the healthy and natural outflow.
