```DESTINY DISCOVERY AND MOLDING MESSAGE (DDMM)```
♦ *TOPIC: CONSISTENCY AND PRAYER Part 1*
*_By: Judah Olatunde_*
Luke 18:3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.
18:4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;
18:5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, LEST BY HER CONTINUAL COMING SHE WEARY ME.
The inconsistency of men in the place of prayer is responsible for the strengthlessness and powerlessness of men.
We understand from scriptures that prayer contributes a lot to the building up of our faith because light (Rhema) and understanding builds up our faith and there are certain things you will never see or come to understand if you're prayerless, this was why David said, open my eyes that I may behold great things from your word and the cry of Paul was always "to know". If you're not praying you can't know and if you don't know, you will be bankrupt of faith because nothing fuels faith like knowledge.
★ You can't believe what you don't know. If you're not aware of it, you can't even declare or hold unto it.★
Now, praying is good but people who can't bear long and keep asking may never really get the most from prayer because there are certain things you must keep asking and thanking God for till you receive and if the devil weakens you or makes you chicken out and stop praying, you may not see the answers to your prayers. The amplified version of Matthew 7:7 says "Ask and keep asking till you receive". This means that you don't stop praying until the answers are visible and tangible in your hands.
From today's text in Luke 18:3-5 we could see the story Jesus told us of a widow who kept on crying to a wicked king and am sure you know that if we call a person a wicked person, what we literally mean is that such a person has a bad behavior and such a person is rigid and heartless, because this man himself confirmed that he has no regard for God or any man, but despite the fact that, this man has a bad behavior, he still couldn't withstand the tireless cry of that widow. (To be continued..)
*Insights For today: If you can stay long enough in prayers, you will surely get answers. Answers will come if prayers continually goes up to God.*
*_Prayer Point: Think back and thank Him for an issue you called on Him for and you received the answers and now thank Him also because He is well able to do even what you're asking for at this moment that you haven't gotten answers to.. Keep walking by faith_*
TODAY'S MEDITATION: 18:5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, LEST BY HER CONTINUAL COMING SHE WEARY ME.
DAILY BIBLE READING PLAN: Micah 3; Psalm 66 and John 20
