Talking about Rejoice in the Lord  always.
I see a form of prayer as praise. Its important to be thankful to God for what he has done. Everyday if you take so time to be thankful to God before you start. Put yourself in a state of gratitude.  Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest think on these things. Dwell on good things. We need to meditate on Gods word. Think on and dwell on good things. Sometimes we need to choose good in a bad situation. Try to not allow your thoughts to drift. Choose to focus on the good things. Focus on the things we can do something about. Pray for others. Breaking down of strong holds. Hold on to the promises.
