We need to make prayer an even greater priority in our life as we approach Jehovah's day of judgment. In this regard, Jesus said: "Keeo awake, then, all the time making supplication that you may succeed in escaping all these things that must occurr." (Luke 21:36) Yes, constant prayer will help us to keep spiritually awake so that God's day does not catch us unprepared.
What have we discussed? We highly value our privilege of prayer. The main focus of our prayers should be on matters directly related to Jehovah's purpose. We also express appreciation for God's Son and His Kingdom, and we pray for our fellow worshippers. And of course we can pray for our own physical and spiritual needs, as welll as our own family. When we think carefully about what we in our prayers, we show that we treasure this marvelous privilege. Our words will be like sweet-smelling incense to Jehovah-"a pleasure to Him." -PROVERBS 15:8.
