who are you praying for?

James 5.16 Confess [your] trespasses [fn] to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous wo/man avails much.
when you watch the news, do you take the time to pray for the news that quickens your Spirit?
when you read the newspaper, do you take the time to pray for the news that quickens your Spirit?
when someone says something through social media, that makes you roll your eyes, do you take the time to pray for that person and/or situation?
i try to consider a promise, a word, a commandment or blessing that can speak life to the things that grieve or even makes my Spirit rejoice.
imagine if every Christian prayed while they watched the news, saw something on the bus/train/while driving in the car...
are you walking in the Spirit 24/7?
