Sermons on Righteous Judge:

Persistence Pays Off

Contributed by Craig Condon on Mar 20, 2015

Have you prayed, and prayed, and there still seems to be no answer? Does it seem as if God is asleep, and absent from your cry? Don't give up, don't lose heart, don't quit now, but just keep praying until the answer comes.
