THIRD DAY
What to Pray - For All Saints
With
all prayer and supplication praying at all seasons, and watching thereunto in
all perseverance and supplication for all saints. -Eph. 6: 18.
Every
member of a body is interested in the welfare of the whole, and exists to help
and complete the others. Believers are one body, and ought to pray, not so much
for the welfare of their own church or society, but, first of all, for all
saints. This large, unselfish love is the proof that Christ's Spirit and Love
are teaching them to pray. Pray first for all and then for the believers around
you.
How to Pray - In the Love of the Spirit
By this
shall all men know that ye are My disciples, if ye have love one to another.
-John 13:35. I pray that they all may be one, that the world may believe
that Thou didst send Me. -John 17:21. I beseech you, brethren, by the love
of the Spirit, that ye strive together with me in your prayers to God for me.
-Rom. 15:30. Above all things being fervent in your love among yourselves. -1
Pet. 4:8.
If we are to pray we must love. Let us say to God we do love
all His saints; let us say we love specially every child of His we know. Let us
pray with fervent love, in the love of the Spirit.
