Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 5:16-24 (NRSVUE)

Is it really possible to “pray without ceasing?” John Wesley believed it was. Furthermore, he insisted that God does nothing in this world except through prayer. But practically, how does that work? Does prayer require us to stop everything else in order to be in communion with God? If we must pray for God to act, does that mean it’s all up to us? Prayer can take many forms. And if we are going to “pray without ceasing,” we will need to employ many forms of prayer. But when we do, incredible things happen.
