FOREWORD

The essence of the Word: "Do to others whatever you would like them to do to you." Matthew 7:12

Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and never give up. Luke 8.1

Do you pray and never give up?  It takes a lot of determination to pray for something for a long time. Satan loves to interfere and would love to have us think that God isn't listening to our petitions or that he doesn't care. If we don't persevere in prayer Satan wins. We don't want that and I'm sure that it breaks Gods heart when he sees his children give up in failure. I wonder if this is why so many Christians today live with discouragement!
Not only is prayer communicating with our Father,  but it is also a weapon! We have to wake up and realize that we have a real enemy and his name is Satan and he is here to kill, steal, and destroy.  Come on now, how many times have you tried to plan your quiet time with God only to have something distract you? Why do you think that is? Satan will do whatever it takes to steal that time away from you. We need to take this seriously!
Don't let anything steal away your time with God. Pray until what you pray for has been accomplished or until you have assurance in your heart that it will be.
Wait at Gods promise until He meets you there, for He always returns by the path of His promises.
