*PRAYER--A LOVE LANGUAGE* (5)
_Key Bible Text:_
*"And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?"* (Matthew 26:40 (KJV))
_Bible Insight:_
Love demands time, affection, care and selflessness. Prayer when viewed as a love language, compels consistency and regular, quality time.
Quality does not necessarily mean quantity. However, quality means meaningful and impactful. The time you spend before a good relationship can be built must be significant and consistent.
In the same manner, the way we pray effectively, is to create time and indulge or spend a considerable length of time. When Jesus needed prayer back up, he asked his disciple, Peter, *"What, could ye not watch with me one hour?"*
This lends us an idea of what length of time Jesus considered fair at that time and in the circumstance. This does not mean praying less than an hour is not good enough, but it does show that praying an hour or more is good enough.
However, even if we pray an hour but we are not consistent, it will still not bring about the goal-- to build a sweet fellowship and relationship with your heavenly Father. One that is strong enough to impact one's life and destiny.
We must strive to build a praying habit both personally and corporately. Personally, work hard to raise a prayer pattern or structure for your life, a pattern that has both internal strength and external strength. Internal strength being your personal prayer times and routines while external speaks of your group or church or general and even family prayer times.
