1 Kings 18:43

Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and never despair.

And God--will not he see that his own People, who cry to him night and day, have justice done them--though he holds his hand?

Pray in spirit at all times. Be intent upon this, with unwearying perseverance and supplication for all Christ's People- -

You still have need of patient endurance, in order that, when you have done God's will, you may obtain the fulfillment of his promise.
