๐ Today’s Devotional
Ephesians 6:18 "And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people."
๐ Scripture Insight
Ephesians 6 is filled with Paul’s powerful exhortation about spiritual warfare. We are engaged in an invisible yet intense battle, and at the heart of this battle is prayer. Paul doesn’t simply say “pray”—he outlines the direction, posture, and focus of prayer in detail.
✨ Devotional Highlights
1. Prayer and Supplication: The Two Pillars of Prayer
‘Prayer’ is communion with God. ‘Supplication’ is bringing specific requests before Him. We are called to seek His will, present our needs, and dwell in His presence.
Prayer is a conversation with God; supplication is the request within that conversation.
2. Pray Always in the Spirit
The Holy Spirit is the initiator and guide of true prayer. Often, we don’t know what or how to pray. But the Spirit helps us in our weakness and leads us according to God’s will (Romans 8:26).
Praying in the Spirit means listening to God’s heart, not just reacting to our emotions or circumstances.
3. Be Alert and Always Keep Praying
To be “alert” is not just to stay awake—it’s to be spiritually sensitive. It means responding to God’s will, resisting worldly distractions, and remaining faithful in the place of prayer.
Alert prayer is the spiritual breath that prepares us for the day.
4. Pray for All the Saints
Though prayer is personal, Scripture emphasizes corporate intercession. We are called to pray for one another—especially for those who are weary, hurting, or struggling.
Intercessory prayer is an act of love and one of the most powerful ministries in the church.
๐ช Life Application

Stay spiritually alert and make space for prayer throughout your day.
