"Persist in Prayer"

Luke 18:1 KJV

"And he spake a parable "unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;"

Like a farmer tending to seed, we must persist in prayer. Learn how to overcome doubts and discouragement through continuous and relentless prayer.

Praying is hard work; it takes faith and unbending consistency to make meaning out of prayer. Jesus taught us to pray and never give in to doubts and weariness. It is very normal to feel weary and doubtful when we pray, especially when answers to our prayers are not coming in as we expect. But we must understand that none of our prayers are fruitless.

As a farmer plants a seed and waits for harvest by continually watering and applying fertilizers to see it grow and yield, so must we pray continually in faith until we see the desired results.

God can not do much for a man that wallows in discouragement and doubts. When doubts and discouragement come, we must persist in prayer. Praying continuously and relentlessly is the way to kill the voices of doubt and discouragement that rise in our hearts as we pray. Therefore, take courage and persist in prayer until you receive your answers.
