OPEN HEAVEN 18-5-22 BIBLE READING LUKE 18:1-7

1. And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;

2. Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man:

3. And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary.

4. And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man;

5. Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.

6. And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith.

7. And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?

OPEN HEAVEN 18-5-22 MESSAGE

Our God being the God of Jacob means that He is the God of love, because when you read Genesis 29:1-35, you will find Jacob to be a man who, because of love, worked for fourteen years without pay.

That is a great demonstration of love. 1 John 4:8 also tells us that God Himself is love. “He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.”

The God of Jacob is also the God of answered prayers. In Genesis 32:1-32, when Jacob knew that Esau was coming to kill him, he prayed all night, refusing to leave Gods representative and by the following morning (Genesis 33:1-4), instead of Esau killing him, he embraced him and wept because God had intervened.

Now, there is something we must take note of in Jacob; he prayed all night. The reason many of us don’t get our prayers answered is that we don’t pray persistently.

The God of Jacob answers the prayers of those who pray persistently, those who don’t stop praying until He gives them what they want.

When you are cutting a tree, there is always that last strike of the axe that will bring it down. If you stop too early, the tree will remain standing and even get stronger as the days go by.

Don’t leave that problem standing, keep knocking on the door of heaven until God solves all your problems and makes your joy full.

It is Jesus Himself who said we should keep calling on God day and night: “And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? Luke 18:7”

Don’t think you are disturbing God with your prayers at all; He said in Isaiah 62:7 And give him no rest, till he establish, and till he make Jerusalem a praise in the earth.

I will keep crying to God day and night (1 Thessalonians 5:17). I will give Him no rest until He answers all my prayers. I hope you will do the same.

Prayer Points For Open Heavens 18 May 2022:

For the way is growing Bright, and our souls are on The wing;
We are going by and by to The palace of a King!

Glory to God, hallelujah!
We are rising on its pinions To the hills above:
Glory to God, hallelujah!

Glory to God, hallelujah!
Where the King in all His Splendor we shall soon Behold
Glory to God, hallelujah!
