Prayers is a crucial aspect of a Christian's life. Prayers can be seen as the life support of a believer. We take a huge risk if we live our lives without praying. When making prayers we should not relent. Even though what we are expecting from God doesn't seem like it is forthcoming we should not back off from prayers.
1 Thessalonians 5:17 - Pray without ceasing.
Prayers is a continuous activity that should be seen in the life of Believers. It can be difficult at times when praying for a particular thing and we are not seeing results. It is very easy to give up hope. But we are encouraged in the scripture that we should not cease from praying.
1 Timothy 4:4 - For every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused, if it be received with thanksgiving:
5 - For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.
The above scripture was as result of a confusion that arose concerning the matter of things that we are to eat. Jesus clarified the people that nothing created by His father is unclean. It still boils down to making prayers before God and also rendering thanks unto Him because He is the provider of it.
