    Stay alert and pray, so that you won't fall into temptation. Being alert enhances our prayers, as every enemy we identify pushes us to pray more fervently. Furthermore, being alert is a form of prayer. If we are truly alert, the act of watching itself becomes a prayer.

    In the Bible, Jesus instructs his disciples to "Watch and pray, so that you will not fall into temptation" (Matthew 26:41, NIV). This command holds great significance for believers today. By understanding the importance of watching and praying, we can overcome temptation and live a victorious ...read more
