PERSISTENCE BRINGS RESULTS

Sleepy eyes will bear slippery hands.

Persistence is the act of continuing to do something, without giving up. One who persist keeps doing something over and over again, he perseveres and keeps trying. Persistence gives the desired results.

The athlete trains for long; Persistence is the virtue all of us need to learn. It outdoes resistance.

To enter that effective door that is open before you, you have to deal with the many opposers “…a great and effective door is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries.” I Cor 16:9

In Luke 11:5-10 Jesus teaches on persistence: on how a needy man went to a friend to borrow food at midnight “5…which of you shall have a friend, and shall go unto him at midnight…” because of the man`s
persistence“ 8…though he will not rise and give to him, because he is his friend, yet because of his importunity he will rise and give him as many as he needs” the friend got up and gave him much as he needed, he just didn`t get bread but as much as he wanted.

To get as more than you want, persist! Brethren it is time to seek, knock, confront those doors you need in your life and they will open.

Make midnight a routine time for prayer and pray not for a day or just one night, pray for those issues over and over until they are released. If you want results, you have to persist in prayer to get them.

Assuming the prostitute (mother of the live child) didn’t persist crying all along even when the sword had been raised to have the kid split into two she could have lost her kid, her cry to the last minute saved her and her kid.

If Job hadn’t persisted- it’s so funny that God speaks nothing in thirty six chapters (Job chapters 2-37). After, God speaks to Job and the result is great. Job 42:10; 12 “10. And the LORD restored the fortunes of Job…” “12. So the LORD blessed the letter end of Job than his beginning…”

He persisted on his stand of not giving the enemy any credit whatsoever but banked and counted it on God and him alone.

Daniel’s answer was sent on the first day of his three weeks of fasting, “I ate no pleasant food, neither came meat nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled” Daniel 10:3 yet it came after the fast ,he persisted in prayer and the angel messenger persisted in the fight until angel Michael came to the aid,“… fear not Daniel: for from the first that you did set your heart to understand , and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard , and I have come because of your words but the prince of the kingdom Persia withstood me one and twenty days: but, lo, Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me; for I had remained there with the king of Persia” Daniel 10:12-13.

We have to show our need and seriousness in whatever we do; the midnight prayer is not an exception.
