Prayer a Preliminary to Important Steps in Life
Luke 6:12
And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.


We should give ourselves to special prayer when we are about to make any important changes in life:

1. Leaving home.

2. Entering on a business or profession.

(1) That the temptations which cluster about our secular callings may not defile and degrade us.

(2) That our secular blessings may be made in the highest sense a blessing to us.

3. Marriage.

(B. Wilkinson, F. G. S.)
