我们如何在冲突、负面情绪、破碎的关系和魔鬼的攻击中仍然爱人呢？犹大解释说，我们可以通过在真道上造就自己，在圣灵里祷告来做到这一点。当神的安慰、平安和力量充满我们时，我们就知道我们是在灵里祷告。当我们放弃自私的计划，转而事奉神，表达出从神而来的对他人的爱和关怀时，我们就知道我们是在灵里祷告。

在以弗所书第六章十八节中，使徒保罗敦促我们“随时多方祷告祈求……为众圣徒祈求”。所以早上要为一天的引领祷告，使每一句话、每一个行为都能为荣耀神而做。中午祷告，求神的能力继续充满你一整天。傍晚祷告，为当天的事感恩，求圣灵赐下美好的休息和力量，为接下来的日子祷告。

根据以弗所书第五章，被圣灵充满促使我们用灵歌彼此建造。而且我们要牢记神对我们的一切祝福，时刻感恩。作为神的子民，基督的身体，我们也要为耶稣的缘故彼此顺服。

所以不要停止祷告和歌唱。圣灵通过这些行动大有作为。当我们心情不好的时候，圣灵甚至会赐给我们一首歌和一个灵里的祷告。

How do we remain loving people in the midst of conflict, negativity, broken relationships, and attacks by the devil? Jude explains that we can do this by building ourselves up in faith and praying in the Holy Spirit. We know we are praying in the Spirit when the comfort, peace, and strength of God fill us. We know we are praying in the Spirit when we drop our selfish agenda in favor of serving God, showing his love and care for others.

In Ephesians 6:18 the apostle Paul urges us to "pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests . . . for all the Lord's people." So pray in the morning for direction for the day, that each word and deed may be done for God's glory. Pray at noon for God's energy to continue filling you throughout the day. Pray in the evening, giving thanks for the day and asking the Spirit for good rest and strength for the days ahead.

According to Ephesians 5, being filled with the Spirit prompts us to build one another up with spiritual songs. And we keep in mind all of God's blessings for us, for which we always give thanks. As God's people, the body of Christ, we also submit to one another for Jesus' sake.

So don't stop praying and singing. The Spirit works mightily through these actions. The Spirit even gives us a song and a prayer when we are down in the dumps.
