NKJ Luke 18:1
* Prayer is our approach to God.
To persist in prayer and not to give up does not mean endless repetition or painfully long prayer sessions. Constant prayer means keeping our requests continually before God as we live for Him day by day, believing He will answer. When we live by faith, we are not to give up. God may delay answering, but His delays always have purpose. As we persist in prayer, we grow in character, faith and hope.
* Sometimes it takes God time to answer
NKJ Luke 18:7
NKJ John 14:12-14 (Power in Prayer)
