Pray and Never Give Up

Then Jesus told his disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.
Luke 18:1

“Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing”
1 Thessalonians 5:11

Ephesians 3:17-19 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God. 

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God
-1 Corinthians 1:18 

Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

1 Timothy 4:12

Grace flows down

“But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well”. 

Matthew 6:33
