A constant attitude of prayer, exemplified by General Stonewall Jackson, is the key to praying without ceasing. Jackson’s practice of praying before drinking water, sealing letters, or changing classes illustrates how prayer can become a natural, ongoing part of daily life. The sermon emphasizes that while special times of prayer are important, the ultimate goal is to cultivate a continuous connection with God through prayer. This ongoing communion allows believers to live in constant awareness of God's presence and will.

General Stonewall Jackson was a man of prayer. He once said, I have so fixed the matter of prayer in my mind that I never raise a glass of water to my lips without asking God's blessing. Never seal a letter without putting a word of prayer under the seal. Never change my classes without a minute's petition for the cadets who go out and those who come in. In the Bible we read, Pray without ceasing. In everything give thanks. You say, pray without ceasing. How can you do that? You can have a constant attitude of prayer, like Stonewall Jackson. We have special times of prayer, but as we walk with the Lord, prayer can be almost as natural as breathing. This has been a moment to remember from the Bible.
