Don’t Give Up on Prayer: The Power of Perseverance
In Episode 13 of The Week Ahead with God Podcast, Ken Robinson explores one of the most vital yet often neglected principles of powerful prayer: persistence. Many of us pray for something once or twice and then give up when we don’t see the results. But Jesus taught us the exact opposite: to keep asking, keep seeking, and keep knocking.
Through the parable of the persistent widow in Luke 18, we see a picture of faith that refuses to quit. It’s not about pestering God—it’s about showing Him we trust His timing and we’re serious about His promises. God isn’t annoyed by your repeated prayers; He’s honoured by them.
In this episode, Ken encourages you not to let discouragement or delay rob you of your faith. You’ll discover why persistence is not a sign of weak faith—but of bold, unwavering confidence in who God is.
If you’ve been tempted to give up on a prayer request, this episode will reignite your hope and remind you that God works in the waiting.
Listen now and discover how persistent prayer cultivates spiritual endurance, deepens your trust, and paves the way for God’s perfect timing.
