Prayer Distractions

This is reading #10 in the twenty-part mini-series, “Voices From The Past”, from the daily devotional book by the same name, edited by Richard Rushing & published by “The Banner of Truth.” Colossians 4:2 says to “Continue steadfastly in prayer, being watchful in it with thanksgiving.” "Distractions of thought haunt us in prayer. We are set to seek God, but it is impossible to shut the windows to keep out all of the wind. If distractions are resisted, God will gather up the broken fragments of our prayers in mercy and answer us!" Puritan preacher Thomas Manton (1659–1689) reveals six key distractions to focused prayer against which we should guard.
