Sometimes we pray for something once and nothing happens and we say,

well God said no, don't give up.

Pastor Greg Laurie says the Lord wants us to come to him with our prayers and he wants us to

keep asking, seeking and knocking.

Hey Greg, I've been praying for my prodigal child for a long time and I don't see them coming

back yet. Well you keep praying for them. Jesus says, asking it shall be giving you, seeking you

will find knock on the door will be open to you. Don't give up in prayer.

This is the day when the last stop found. This is the day for a moment again.

Amazing grace, I've weak the stone. But can you hear the only angel from senior?

This is the day the day we live again.

Have you noticed that sometimes you'll click something on a website and nothing happens?

And you wait. But you know from experience if you click a second time then you've just

good insight on effective prayer. Download a copy of this insight by going to harvest.org.

This is the day the day when life begins.

Prayer is not an option for a believer. To be a growing Christian you must have a prayer life.

to not worry, if you want to be ready for the return of Jesus you need to pray.
