Colosenses 4:2

2 Continue in prayer, and watch in the same with thanksgiving;

Ver. 2. Continue in prayer ] Constant and instant in it, wait upon it, lay all aside for it (as the word προσκταρερειτε signifieth, Act 6:2 ); while prayar stands still, the trade of godliness stands still.

And watch in the same ] Against dulness of spirit, drowsiness of body, Satanic suggestions, secular distractions, &c.

With thanksgiving ] Have your thanks ready, for you are sure to speed.
