Keep praying - don't give up

“Then Jesus told his disciples a parable that they should always pray not give up.”

Luke 18:1

If Jesus doesn’t want us to give up on our prayers then there’s a reason; reason being, they will be answered if we keep praying. Therefore be patient, be bold, be believing, and be strong in faith.  Don’t ever, not ever, give up - your prayers are heard and they will be answered.

Stay fearless! Keep believing in God!

"...Your threat means nothing to us. If you throw us in the fire, the God we serve can rescue us from your roaring furnace and anything else you might cook up, O king. But even if he doesn’t, it wouldn’t make a bit of difference, O king. We still wouldn’t serve your gods or worship the gold statue you set up.”

Fear not of any words, threats, or deeds that come to you by man.  Instead, fully place your trust in God: stay fearless, keep believing, and know that God is your redeemer and protector. 

You will be blessed!!

Know this!!

Know this well, then.  Take it to heart right now!  God is in Heaven above; God is on Earth below.  He’s the only God there is…  Deuteronomy 4:39-40, The Message

Believing in anyone or anything else leads only to pain and darkness.

What is faith?

What is faith?

It is… “the assurance (the confirmation, the title deed) of the things [we] hope for, being the proof of things [we] do not see and the conviction of their reality [faith perceiving as real fact what is not revealed to the senses].” Hebrews 11:1 AMPC

Faith is believing God even though nothing in the real gives you any sign of the things you are believing for.

Separate yourself.

“But when some became more and more stubborn (hardened and unbelieving) discrediting and reviling and speaking evil of the Way [of the Lord]… he separated himself from them… “ Acts 19:9 AMP

There is no reason that you need to stay in a relationship, group, or congregations that speaks evil, gossips, stirs up trouble, threatens, discriminates, lies, or just plain rude.  Like Paul, you too can separate yourself and move on with your life.  Guaranteed: you will be more richly blessed without them!
