The bible says it and there shouldn't be any hindrance, any inhibitions, any restraint from doing it because Jesus has given us this freedom - Pray and do it without ceasing.
"…pray in the Spirit on all occasions, with all kinds of prayers and requests. " Eph 6:18
We may neglect the fact that God actually wants to be consulted on even the smallest detail of our lives. There is a big part of our lives where God has to play a leading role and that is the 2010 elections. Let's urge everybody to pray, and do it without ceasing, for a righteous leader.

My ampalaya is perfect for what i am celebrating today :-) perfect timing talaga ang God. It has to do with receiving healing and the ampalaya is found at Mark 11:24 Jesus said, I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours. Well you see, it's exactly one year from the date of my myomectomy. It's exactly a year na when i believed God will heal me and He did. I can still remember all those doctors telling me that they can't save my uterus anymore... but after praying and believing... eto na ako, buong buo pa rin ang uterus and super ganda pa rin. hehehe it's exactly a year when I have experienced how God can perform miracles if one just believes.

Two ladies from Lakas-Angkan,N. Ecija share their insights on each quiet time that they have ever since they heard about "ampalaya".
DO SOMETHING
"Faith that does nothing is dead!" (James 2:26)
Faith is not the belief that God will do what you want. Faith is the belief that God will do what is right. God is always near and always available. Just waiting for your touch. So let him know. Demonstrate your devotion:
Write a letter.
Ask forgiveness.
Be baptized.
Feed a hungry person.
Pray.
Teach.
Go.
Do something that demonstrates faith. For faith with no effort is no faith at all. God will respond. He has never rejected a genuine gesture of faith. Never.
---He Still Moves Stones

SOLE PROVIDER, SOLE COMFORTER (from The Applause of Heaven)
As long as Jesus is one of my options, he is not an option.
As long as you can carry your burdens alone, you don't need a burden bearer. As long as your situation brings you no grief, you will receive no comfort. And as long as you can take Him or leave Hin, you might as well leave Him, because He won't be taken half-heartedly.
But when you mourn, when you get to the point of sorrow for your sins, when you admit that you have no other option but to cast all your cares on Him, and when there is truly no other name that you can call, then cast all your cares on Him, for He is waiting in the midst of the storm.

Amena Brown: Ressurection
What's AMPALAYA?
Ampalaya or bitter gourd is a vegetable which has a bitter taste but very high in nutrients and said to be good cure for anemics. For Christians, it is devotion, the essence of your faith - that which Christians almost never like. It is the reading and meditating on God's word. Our faith may be focused on good deeds and making the world a better place, but it is nothing without ampalaya.
