Bible Note: Thank you for the warm welcome, John. Yes, to your note... "Wherever there is temptation, you can be sure the lying devil is close at hand." That is a very good incentive to pray always, as our Lord warns us in Luke 21:36. "Watch ye therefore and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass and to stand before the Son of man." Prayer is such an important aspect in the life of a Christian. As James Montgomery wrote in his hymn, "Prayer is the soul's sincere desire, unuttered or expressed; the motion of a hidden fire that trembles in the breast." Shalom, love_peace_joy |
