Keep Asking!!

"Don't lose heart.
Don't lose hope.
Don't lose faith.
Don't lose patience.

Maybe you've been interceding for a child who has walked away from the faith.

Maybe you've been believing for reconciliation in your marriage.

Maybe you've been waiting for a healing miracle, a financial miracle, or an opportunity miracle.

Keep asking.
Keep seeking.
Keep knocking.

God rarely does things how or when we expect Him to, and it leads us to question His strange and mysterious ways.

I'm sure the Israelites questioned God's battle plan at Jericho.

They would have preferred to storm the gates or scale the walls, but God told them to circle the city for seven days!

It didn't make any sense. It had to feel like forever.

But they kept circling!

Sometimes God will push us to our absolute limits — the limits of our faith, of our patience, of our gifts.

That is how God stretches our faith and builds our character.

I don't know what you've been circling for the past forty days or forty weeks or forty years.

I don't know if you've gotten a yes, a no, or a not yet.

You've got to praise God if the answer is yes and trust Him if the answer is no.

If the answer is not yet, you've got to keep circling.

It's always too soon to give up! What other option do you have?

To pray or not to pray. Those are the only options."
