3 Weapons of a Spiritual WarriorSample

DAY THREE – Pray as a Lifestyle and Be Persistent

Communicating with God should be something you do every day to sharpen your spiritual walk and deepen your connection to Him. Prayer doesn’t just cover and protect you; it shapes your environment, your personality, and your responses to life’s obstacles. Prayer sharpens your discernment so you don’t waste time on unproductive relationships. Prayer is how you invite God to intervene in the situation.

The enemy expects you to reach for God when things are going wrong and to neglect prayer when things are going right. So when you start making prayer your lifestyle—something you do whether things in your life are going great or absolutely horrible—you surprise the enemy.

We cannot expect a situation to change if we don’t give it to God in prayer and keep praying until the answer comes. We often stop praying closer to our breakthrough than we know. Often your fight is not nearly finished when you think it is, and you stop praying too soon.

Jesus commended the persistent widow in Luke 18 who kept taking her plea before the unjust judge until he answered her. Don’t give up in prayer. Be persistent. Ask and keep on asking.
