Prayer is the greatest common denominator among all the great biblical characters and thousands of strong believers throughout history. Moses prayed. Abraham prayed. King David, Solomon, Esther, Deborah, Daniel, Joseph, all the prophets —and, of course, Jesus Christ Himself—had profound commitments to lives of prayer.

Today's devotion in the “Everyone Prays” series focuses on “How should we pray?” based on 1 Thessalonians 5:17. Effective prayer requires childlike faith, sincerity, and confidence, avoiding overcomplicated language, and ensuring our faith is paired with action, as highlighted in Hebrews 11:6 and James 2:20. Additionally, our prayers should align with God's will, seeking His desires for our lives as outlined in 1 John 5:14-15, to see our prayers answered.

Today, we continue our series on "Everyone Prays" by exploring the meaning of praying without ceasing, as instructed in 1 Thessalonians 5:17.
