Keep Praying and Trusting
What if the
Israelites had stopped circling Jericho on day six? For that matter, what if
Elijah had quit praying for rain after his sixth request? Or what if Naaman had
only dipped in the river six times? The
answer is obvious: the miracle would have been forfeited right before it
happened. 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. - Mark Batterson, Draw the Circle
