Galatians 6:9 “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.’

DAILY READING; • Mark 1:21-45; 2 Samuel 3:2-39; Daniel 2:1-23

Over five decades ago, the U.S. Supreme Court removed prayer from their public schools.
On June 25, 1962, the U.S. Supreme Court declared school-sponsored prayers unconstitutional in America.
Public outrage was immediate and widespread as millions of Americans protested against the rulings of the court.
Eliminating school-sponsored prayer, they argued, set America on the road to moral and spiritual ruin. This has eventually proved to be true.
Indeed over the years, the absence of “school prayer” has led to a drastic increase in many social ills in American schools; from schoolhouse shootings to drug addiction and teen pregnancy etc

Starting from the 1960s when prayer was stopped in public schools, within a 30 year period in America, (1962-1992) there was a 560% increase in violent crime; more than a 400% increase in illegitimate births, more than a 200% increase in teenage suicide rate, and a drop of almost 80 points in the School examination scores.

It is obvious that the stoppage of prayers, spiritually paved the way for many things to begin to go wrong in the American society.
Ironically, those students of the 60’s who were reared in prayerless schools are no longer students. They are now professors, members of Congress, judges, school board members, and presidents of the United States. The Moral relativism of no absolute truth, which they were taught continues today to affect their far reaching decisions, not only in America, but also across the world.

Indeed consistent prayer is necessary to stop the gates of hell from prevailing in our lives.
As believers, prayer is our way of life. If you don’t want to see spiritual decay and decadence, then you must keep the fire always burning on your prayer altar.

There is no alternative to prayer.
There is an enemy who is on the prowl looking for whom to devour; as long we keep praying, our environment will be too hot for him to gain access.
Indeed we must be constantly vigilant. Spiritually we can’t afford to go on a ‘holiday,’ not even for a moment. We must always be conscious that we are in a warfare, with an enemy who will attack at the slightest show of negligence.
Therefore, we must discipline ourselves to pray without ceasing.

Any believer who is walking in power is a person who is always renewing their oil and fire through periodic fasting and praying.
Indeed we must travail in prayers in order to prevail in life. We must kneel in prayer to stand in victory.
If we refuse to grow weary in praying, we will reap the promises of God in our lives.

Certainly, it is our year to see wonders, but there is a price of prayer to pay because we must war with prophesies to see them fulfilled.

Galatians 6:9 “And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.”

To see the manifestations we desire, we must be persistent in spiritual exercises. We must be consistent in our Word study, fasting and praying, praise and worship, sacrificial giving etc. When you refuse to be weary in well doing, you will surely reap victory and miracles in due season. We serve the miracle-working God who is able to exceed our expectations. And as we tirelessly seek Him in the place of prayer in this season, we shall certainly see mighty manifestations of His wonders in our lives. .

PRAYER: Father, please grant me the grace to seek greater intimacy with You through consistent prayers and the study of Your Word. Please, help me not to grow weary in spiritual exercisesr, but to press on to victory in Jesus’Name.
