But God's word says, "Men ought always to pray and not to faint." [Luke 18:1] "Pray without ceasing!" [1 Thes.5:17] "Be not weary in well doing: for in due season ye shall reap, if you faint not." [Galatians 6:9] "Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might." [Ephesians 6:10]
The will is powerful. "The spirit of a man sustains him; but a wounded spirit, who can bear?" [Proverbs 18:14] Strong faith with a strong will has many times overcome seemingly insurmountable handicaps.
When you are weak and incapable and insufficient, then God has a chance to be strong and capable and sufficient in you! So don't give up too soon, don't get rescued prematurely, don't quit just before the victory! Anything wonderful can happen in that little margin of time when you do not give up, but keep on believing and keep on praying!
And you will never be sorry! You will always be glad throughout all Eternity that you held on and kept on keeping on for Jesus! "Be ye strong therefore, and let not your hands be weak: for your work shall be rewarded."[2 Chronicles 15:7]
