True-believer Posted May 19, 2009 Posted May 19, 2009 “Keep on praying.” It is easy to ask God for something and then, if we don’t see our prayer answered right away, we give up. This is not right! The Bible encourages us to persevere in prayer. This means to keep on praying and not to give up. Jesus taught us the story of a judge and a woman who kept coming before the judge. He said that the judge would give the widow what she was asking for because she kept coming to the judge. The Bible says “Ask, and you will receive; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” We should always seek to pray according to God’s will; ask God to show you what He wants for your life so you are doing God’s will and not just your own. Then you can pray to God as His child and ask Him in Jesus’ name to carry out His will and His purposes in your life. But ask in faith and keep on believing. Don’t give up just because you don’t see your prayers answered right away. I prayed for someone for many years to turn their life over to God. It took years, but God answered my prayer and that person is serving God today. So don’t give up! Quote Luke 4:19To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
