Life is a series of battles to fight. There is a ring of truth in this statement whether we live in a nice cushy world or in a threathening or hostile environment. Human strength and rsolving alone cannot change the people around us or the circumstances we find ourselves in. Much less griping and grumbling about it.

But prayer can! it must be one of the most baffling mysteries yet to be unraveled as to why when we know that prayer works, do we not pray or pray like we're praying in these 24hour prayer? Why; when we know the possibilites of prayer; do we not tap into its wondrous working power? Well, Satan knows as much and we need to be aware that he will try his utmost to oppose and sabotage our efforts towards the spiritual disciplines that will build up our strength.

You and I know that our spiritual life is nurtured through prayer and if we do not pray, it's no wonder we become weak and vulnerable to the attacks of the enemy.
