That is why we are told in 1 Thessalonians 5:17, to pray without ceasing. Imagine you praying without stopping. Imagine you praying everyday at all times. That is to say that we should pray in the morning and at noon and in the evening. So, the christian is someone who prays always.
The Lord Jesus Christ said something to us that explains why we should always pray. He said that the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. What we have to do in order to please God won't be easy with the flesh. The spirit might be willing. We might feel like we want to please God in our hearts but we are often reluctant because our flesh will always try to hinder our lives.
What about when we are faced with the challenges of life? We will need to pray! We pray to come out of satanic bondages and afflictions. The life that we are living is full of trials. We are told in the Word of God that we are in a battle with some spiritual forces. A christian who knows that he is in a battle with some spiritual forces should know that he is unconsciously called to a prayer life.
The Lord Jesus Christ also taught us to pray so that we do not enter into temptations. There are many tempting situations in the world. When we pray and hold on to God, He will give us victory over sins.
