Summary
Jesus teaches through the parable of the persistent widow (Luke 18:1-8) that believers should persistently pray and not lose heart, trusting that God hears and will ultimately bring justice. The sermon emphasizes both temporal comfort in prayer and eternal hope in Christ's return.
Highlights
People who lose heart do not persist in prayer. People who persist in prayer do not lose heart.
God doesn't always answer our prayers the way we want him to. But he answers them the way we would want him to if we knew all that God knew.
The sovereignty of God, the fact that God is in control is the safest pillow you'll ever lay your head on.
