"Pray and ask God for everything you need always giving thanks." Philippians 4:6
Heaven knows no difference between Sunday morning and Wednesday afternoon. God longs to speak as clearly in the workplace as He does in the sanctuary. He longs to be worshiped when we sit at the dinner table and not just when we come to His communion table. You may go days without thinking of Him, but there's never a moment when He's not thinking of you.
Knowing this, we understand Paul's rigorous goal: "We capture every thought and make it give up and obey Christ" (2 Cor. 10:5). We can fathom why He urges us to "pray without ceasing" (I Thess. 5:17), "be constant in prayer" (Rom. 12:12) . . . and "let heaven fill your thoughts" (Col. 4:2). - The Great House of God.
