How can we have a LIFE OF UNCEASING PRAYER?

When we clearly see the LIVING TRUTH that GOD IS ALWAYS WITH US.

That HE is always IN OUR HEARTS- Colossians 1:27.

That HE IS THE FULLNESS OF OUR LIVES!

Let our lives be AN UNCEASING PRAYER...

AN UNCEASING RELATIONSHIP AND UNION WITH GOD ALMIGHTY.

LET US LIVE, MOVE AND HAVE THE FULLNESS OF OUR BEING IN HIM!- Acts 17:28

Let our lives, our bodies, our very being BE HIS TEMPLE!- Romans 12:1+ I Corinthians 6:14-17

Let our whole being BE A LIVING ICON, A MANIFESTATION OF JESUS CHRIST OUR KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS- John 15:1-17

DWELLS GOD
