Persevere in prayer. What does it mean to persevere? It means to have faith — even when things don’t look like they are going well.
Abraham in the Bible was promised by God that he would have a son even in his old age. Yet it took years before God fulfilled the promise and Abraham had a son. Abraham was commended by God for having faith, but the answer to his prayer did not come right away.
Are you facing a trial or difficulty in your life? Have faith in God. God says you can come to Him with your prayers in Jesus name. But, when you come, ask in faith — and then have patience. God may bring the answer to your prayer right away or it might take some time. Sometimes, God answers in ways we don’t expect. The Bible says “If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him. But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt, because he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind.”
God is our heavenly Father. He loves you and me and He knows what is best. You can trust Him that He will bring to pass in your life what is best for you when we commit our lives to Jesus Christ. But you should have faith, and patience, and don’t give up. Keep believing God and He will bring great things to pass in your life.
So, this week, let us pray that
- God will help us have patience to believe Him for great things in faith
- God will help Global Media Outreach see 100 million people accept Jesus Christ as Savior
- God will protect our staff and fill and control us each day with His Holy Spirit
Thank you and may God bless you,
