Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thus with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
All Commentaries on Ephesians 6:18 Go To Ephesians 6
Gaius Marius Victorinus
AD 400
This means that we should not say or utter particular words or recite them in our prayers as though they were premeditated or written down. We are to pray “in the spirit” and “at all times.” Let your deep affections enter into your praying. The inner spirit, that is, the inner man, is making his prayer with intense desire. He is praying all the time, so that even when he is not praying aloud he is still praying in the spirit. .
