Persistent Prayer (Linton Hall Sermon)
August 17, 2025
Praying can be hard
Luke 18:1 CSB – Now he told them a parable on the need for them to pray always and not give up.
Luke 18:2-3 CSB – “There was a judge in a certain town who didn’t fear God or respect people. And a widow in that town kept coming to him, saying, ‘Give me justice against my adversary.’
Luke 18:4-5 CSB – “For a while he was unwilling, but later he said to himself, ‘Even though I don’t fear God or respect people, yet because this widow keeps pestering me, I will give her justice, so that she doesn’t wear me out by her persistent coming.’”
Luke 18:6-8 CSB – Then the Lord said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says. Will not God grant justice to his elect who cry out to him day and night? Will he delay helping them? I tell you that he will swiftly grant them justice. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on earth?”
God answers persistent prayers
Pray always! Don’t give up!
If Jesus looked at your prayer life would He find faith?
Hear? Obey? Share?
