Whenever someone asks for prayer, pray now! If not, we may forget. We get so busy with life, that we forget to pray for folks. We forget to pray ourselves some days. We go through the day wishing, going here and there. We get up late. We get that early phone call. We remember an assignment due or a task undone.
Paul reminds us to pray continually . . . always . . . especially when we have told someone we will pray for them!
Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you. Do not quench the Spirit. (1 Thessalonians 5:16-19)
Write down names of those needing prayer. We can text ourselves as reminders. Set an alarm on the phone. Do whatever we have to do to remember to pray . . . even for ourselves! Hey . . . why not pray now! Who needs prayer?
