And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:

3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.

4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.

7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?

8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
Luke 18:1-8

This year calls for much prayer. There has to be an increase in your prayer life as compared to last year. You should keep praying about your desires and not give up until the answer comes. Don't forget the fact that the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much (James 5:16). Be diligent in your prayer life this year and be determined to keep times of prayer with the Lord. If the unrighteous judge could harking to the persistent cry of the woman, God will certainly Harken to your persistent prayer. When the answer does not come immediately, do not be discouraged, for the delay to your prayer being answered does not mean denial. Keep knocking at the door and it shall be opened unto you.
May the Lord find you still believing that He is the Rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. Continue in prayer and pray without ceasing. Pray for an effective prayer life this year. Live with a continuous attitude of prayer, worship and thanksgiving. You will find rest, in Jesus' name.
Remain blessed.
Good morning.
