In Colossians 4:2, Paul, ordained by the Spirit, wrote to the Church: "Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving."

We've learned a lot through the past 7 weeks of Breakthrough Prayer. Many of us have seen it with our own eyes! Many of us are still waiting. Regardless, we must be watchful with thanksgiving. Why is that important? Primarily because God deserves it - and he is still overseeing the direction and answers to those prayers. But gratitude is key because, as Brother David Steindl-Rast notes, “The root of joy is gratefulness…. It is not joy that makes us grateful; it is gratitude that makes us joyful.” It pleases God when we serve him with obedience and joy!

Listen in to this great conversation - and a clue to the next series!.
