Title: Be Persistent
And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;
(Luke 18:4 KJV)

The parable of the widow and the judge teaches us about the importance of consistency (Luke 18). We realized that the widow received justice as she kept going to the judge day and night. We will also receive answers to our prayers and great rewards on earth and in Heaven when we persistently go before the Lord in prayer and do every good work the Lord has assigned to us.
We live in a world of fast food, fast cars, bullet trains and high-speed internet and this has birthed a generation of impatient people who expect everything to work as quick as possible. We tend to give up when things are not going as we expect. However, we should know that God works in His own time and not according to the time we expect Him to (Eccl 3:11). God may delay in answering, but His delays always have good reasons.
Itโs very sad that majority of Christians nowadays are not consistent in their Faith. We are not consistent in going to Church, attending prayer meetings, having quiet time, having personal prayer time, giving to support the Gospel, helping the poor, and other good works. We do these good works one, two or three times and then we lose interest, give up, and stop doing them.
The problem with most Christians is that we measure our level of success based on the worldly standards. When we have few members in our Church or few viewers and subscribers on our online channel, we tend to think that we have failed the Lord. I would like to encourage you today that Godโs measure of success is based on your obedience to what He asked you to do.
Once you are doing what the Lord asked you to, know that He is proud of you. Donโt let the worldly standards influence you to think that you have failed. Thatโs the plan of the devil to make you give up, but we are not ignorant of his devices (2 Cor 2:11).
Beloved in the Lord, letโs therefore be consistent in our prayers and in good works, knowing that the Lord will surely answer our prayers and reward our good works, on earth and in Heaven. Our labor will definitely not be in vain (1 Cor 15:58).
Prayer Point:
Letโs thank God for His word. Letโs ask God to grant us the Grace and Strength to obey Him and be consistent in our prayer and good works as we await the glorious return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
God bless you all!
