Prayer is an act of a soul seeks to unite with God. Those who love God will pray unceasingly. The soul listen the voice of her Master in silently or without any word from her mouth but only wish of her to be united with Him at all the time. ‘At dawn and with all his heart he turns to the Lord his Creator; he pleads in the presence of the Most High, he opens his mouth in prayer and makes entreaty for his sins. If such are be the will of the great Lord, he will be filled with the spirit of intelligence, he will shower forth words of wisdom and in prayer give thanks to the Lord.’ Sir.39: 5-6.
Jesus also prayed alone in the mountian, he spent whole night in porayer to God, then how much we have to pray. Luke 6:12 (NJB): Now it happened in those days that he went onto the mountain to pray; and he spent the whole night in prayer to God. After the prayer he chose the twelve apostles among his disciples. Jesus is teaching us how fervently we have to pray to God. We have to pray until our prayers are answered by Him.
