Now Jesus was telling the disciples a parable to make the point that at all times they ought to pray and not give up and lose heart

And will not [our just] God defend and avenge His elect [His chosen ones] who cry out to Him day and night? Will He delay [in providing justice] on their behalf? I tell you that He will defend and avenge them quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find [this kind of persistent] faith on the earth?”

But He said, “The things that are impossible with people are possible with God.” [Gen 18:14; Jer 32:17]

For a time he would not; but later he said to himself, ‘Even though I do not fear God nor respect man, yet because this widow continues to bother me, I will give her justice and legal protection; otherwise by continually coming she [will be an intolerable annoyance and she] will wear me out.’ ”

I assure you and most solemnly say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God [with faith and humility] like a child will not enter it at all.”

But Jesus called them to Himself, saying [to the apostles], “Allow the children to come to Me, and do not forbid them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

Jesus said to him, “Regain your sight; your [personal trust and confident] faith [in Me] has made you well.”

Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is [essentially and morally] good except God alone.
