PRAYING UNTIL SOMETHING HAPPENS!

THE CHURCH IS TO PRAY PERSEVERINGLY!
Luke 18:2
(MULTILINE)
The prayer that succeeds is the prayer that supplies.
God always answers prayer.
If the request is wrong, God answers “no.”
If the timing is wrong, God answers “slow.”
If we are wrong, God answers “grow.”
But if the request is right, the timing is right,
and we are right, God says, “go!”
