Persistent Prayers

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 21, 2021

This is made clear in the first verse of this parable, look at Luke 18:1, we read, “And he spake a ...read more

Spontaneous prayer is much more meaningful and real than planned prayer. Planned prayer is usually locked into formulas, and we repeat the same requests over and over. This kind of prayer gets dull, and it is seen as a duty rather than a joy.
