Prayer lasts.  Prayer changes things.  Prayer changes you.  It may not change the things in your natural surroundings that you can see right at the moment, but in the Spirit, God has already sent an answer.  Do not be fooled in this hour.  Do not think for a moment that you can win without prayer.  We cannot look at the situations in the world or the situations in our own environment and say that prayer does not work.  There are many people who are ready to give up right now because they prayed for something a month ago, a week ago, a year ago, and they are not seeing the results of their prayers.  They feel as if they have gone before God and asked God to do something on their behalf and God didn’t hear them.   If you want win, you must pursue God, follow His plan and live according to his purpose for your life.

I want to encourage you to keep praying.  Keep trusting in your God and know that God will answer your prayers.  He may not answer you in the time and the season that you want him to answer, but keep praying, keep believing, because the word of God cannot come back to him void.  If it came back void, God would be a liar.  Our God is not a man that he should lie.  Don’t try to manipulate God to work in your timeframe.  You must believe in your heart and not doubt that you will see the thing that you have prayed for come to pass in your life.  You will see the prophecy that has been spoken over your life come to pass, and you will know only God did it.  It takes a real champion who trusts God to position himself to win.
