The Parable of the Persistent Widow Luke 18:1-8 --- Pray and not lose heart; Do you have faith to stick it out?

 Persistence brings results. Even the evil judge was moved; how much more will your loving God answer your prayer. Keep the faith alive until He comes again.


Lessons:

  • Be persistent and you will get what you want.
  • God will answer prayer of justice and other needs speedily
    • Sometimes God's answer is "no": While persistence is important, it's also important to accept that sometimes things don't go according to plan. Faith can also involve trusting God's wisdom even when the answer isn't what you hoped for.
  • As evil grows in the world, we need to persist in our faith even more.
    • Focus on good along with evil: The world isn't all bad. There's still a lot of good in the world, and focusing on that can strengthen your faith as well.
