Persistent, Faith-Filled, Passionate Prayer
It is most interesting that Jesus spends almost half of Luke 17 discussing the severity of the coming end times and, immediately after, tells a parable of this persistent woman who needed justice from a wicked judge and who, without wavering, persistently pursued him until she got her answer.
Luke 18:1 Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.
After Jesus told the story of this woman, because of her persistence, finally getting justice from a wicked judge, he said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says. And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?” Luke 18:6-8
The people who consistently pray are the ones who believe God is their answer. Those who do not believe God is the answer to their situation will not take the time to pray, especially the kind of prayer that doesn’t give up until the solution is granted.
In these last days, God is looking for those who believe him enough to pray persistently! Even Jesus, when he prayed, as recorded in John chapter 17, prayed five times in the same prayer for unity and love. You can be sure that the fiercest battles of your life will find their victory on your knees in prayer! There is only one way to deliver a breakthrough to a lost and hurting world – Persistent, faith-filled, passionate prayer!
As we see the end times approaching, prayer must be a true priority! It is time to put our prayer life into high gear, releasing the powerful forces of heaven against every dark lie Satan is promoting! Persistent and consistent prayer is the only thing the devil fears and is the only way we bring destruction to his schemes!
The great woman of God, Corrie Ten Boom, asked this question, “Is prayer your steering will or your spare tire?” Those who go to God to get their breakthrough are those who truly trust God. Worry results from trusting in self; peace comes from trusting God! We must no longer trust in what we can do and must fully rely on what God can do as we pursue him in prayer!
The word of God lets us know that, for the body of Christ, our best days are yet ahead. I believe that we are on the brink of an unprecedented revival! Prepare your minds for action through constant communion with the Father. I am convinced that your breakthrough will manifest through…
