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.
