How much morewill God answer prayer. . .

God is good God is on the side of the weak We who ask are chosen and

loved God listens God is able

What does it mean to persist in prayer?

Look to God and him alone Trust in God’s unchanging

character Don’t become down-hearted Depend on the Holy Spirit Getting a Kingdom perspective Look to Jesus’ return

Why persist?

Persistence builds faith by keeping us depending on God

Encourages us when we see answers to prayer

Like Abraham we set out for an unknown promised land. The faith lies in setting out on the journey, not being exactly sure of where we are going. We believe that God is faithful, provided we do what is in our power – and that is to pray for the sick. Discovering this reality was liberating: to know that faith is simply obedience and the willingness to risk; not an absolute certainty about what is going to happen on the journey!
