1Th_5:17. One means of promoting Christian joyfulness is prayer. Theophylact: Τὴν ὁδὸν ἔδειξε τοῦ ἀεὶ χαίρειν , τὴν ἀδιάλειπτον προσευχὴν καὶ εὐχαριστίαν · ὁ γὰρ ἐθισθεὶς ὁμιλεῖν τῷ Θεῷ καὶ εὐχαριστεῖν αὐτῷ ἐπὶ πᾶσιν ὡς συμφερόντως συμβαίνουσι , πρόδηλον , ὅτι χαρὰν ἕξει διηνεκῆ . Paul also exhorts to continued prayer in Eph_6:18, and to perseverance in prayer in Col_4:2; Rom_12:12.
