Persistent Prayer

 â€¢ Stephanie Johnson â€¢ Series: What is Kingdom Living?

Jesus teaches us that Kingdom prayer begins with recognizing God as our loving Father, establishing prayer as an intimate relationship rather than a fearful obligation. The Lord's Prayer provides a structure focusing on acknowledging God's holiness, expressing our daily needs, seeking forgiveness, and requesting guidance. Jesus emphasizes persistence in prayer through the parable of the midnight visitor, showing that we should continue praying with trust in God's goodness. Prayer isn't about manipulating God to get what we want but about aligning our hearts with His will and maintaining constant communion with Him.
