Perseverance in Prayer

From Matthew 5:6:  “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.”

Just as Jesus teaches

Praying to Father above

Asking in humbleness

Relationship filled with love

 

Blessed are those who hunger

Seeking truth’s fulfilling hope

Thirsting for righteousness

Father tightens up faith’s rope

 

Patience shall be required

Waiting for Father’s reply

Following Spirit’s light

View from eagle’s wings on high

 

Perseverance in prayer

Knocking on heavenly door

Searching for life’s answers

Father fills faith’s inner core

From Luke 11:9-10:  “So I say to you, Ask, and it will be given to you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you.  For everyone who asks receives, and everyone who searches finds, and for everyone who knocks, the door will be opened.”

Vance Havner Quote

No journey is complete that does not lead through some dark valleys.  We can properly comfort others only with the comfort wherewith we ourselves have been comforted of God.

From Matthew 5:4:  “Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.”

Vance Havner (1901-1986) was an American pastor and Christian author.  During his many years of service to the Lord, he preached throughout America.
