Topic: UNTIL YOUR JOY BE FULL I

Memory Verse: Luke 18:1 – And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint; Luke 18:1

Bible Reading: Luke 18:1-8

Message: The wicked judge never respected anyone. He never deferred to anyone. However, as this poor widow troubled him relentlessly with her cry for justice, we see that the judge who was wicked had to respond to her so that she could let him rest. Many children of God give up on their prayers before God responds to them. If that woman had stopped knocking just at the point at which the judge was deciding to grant her request, she would not have had justice. Many Christians were only one more prayer away when they gave up and lost their miracle. Sometimes you pray once and God will answer immediately, but at other times, you need to keep pressing in the spirit for your answer to come. If you stop pressing at some point, the answer may not come. That is why the concluding part of John 16:24 says:

…ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.

I know that sometimes God wants you to keep praying, not because He doesn’t want to answer, but because there is something He wants to perfect in you and that thing can only be completed when you press deeper into the spirit.

Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. James 1:3-4

I can tell you for sure: if God had answered all my prayers the very first time I asked, I would not be as deeply involved with Him as I am today. Prayer is more a blessing for us, than it is for God. You must always remember that prayer does not change who God is, prayer changes you. The more you pray and commit to prayer, the more strengthened you become as a Christian. There may be things you want God to do for you; even if those things are yet to come, don’t ever give up praying. God is not reluctant to give you what you asked for, but with your constant prayer in faith, you are building a cloud of blessings that will soon break out upon you. Until that cloud breaks, don’t stop praying. Until your joy is full, don’t stop knocking on heaven’s door. Keep pressing in the spirit until your answer comes.

Hymn: My Faith Looks Up To Thee
Points: What are those things you have stopped praying for now simply because the answer didn’t come? List them out now and begin to Include them in your daily prayers again.
Bible in one year: Proverbs 12, Proverbs 13

Title: My Faith Looks Up to Thee.
Chorus: null.

  1. My faith looks up to Thee,

Thou Lamb of Calvary,
Saviour divine!
Now hear me while I pray,
Take all my guilt away,
O let me from this day
Be wholly Thine!

  2. May Thy rich grace impart

Strength to my fainting heart,
My zeal inspire;
As Thou hast died for me,
O may my love to Thee
Pure, warm and changeless be
A living fire!

  3. While life's dark maze I tread, 

And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my guide;
Bid darkness turn to day,
Wipe sorrow’s tears away,
Nor let me ever stray
From Thee aside.

  4. When ends life's transient dream,

When death’s cold sullen stream
Shall o’er me roll;
Blest Saviour, then, in love,
Fear and distrust remove;
O bear me safe above,
A ransomed soul.
