Persist

“Then the man said, “Let me go, for the dawn is breaking!” But Jacob said, “I will not let you go unless you bless me.”” Genesis 32:26

Don’t leave the path to your goal until you arrive there. Strongly persist in the execution of the strategy you have identified to achieve your goals or vision. Whatever you have chosen to do, be it prayer, studying, ministry, career, business, and so on, you will be resisted. Persistence is the answer to resistance. Even if you are talented and skillful but lack persistence, you may not achieve your goals. Keep at it, no matter the barrier or opposition. Robert Brault said and I agree, “Stubbornly persist, and you will find that the limits of your stubbornness go well beyond the stubbornness of your limits."

This was what Jacob did in that night prayers, he stubbornly persisted until he got the blessing. Fortunately for him, the situation was like, “he either gets the breakthrough or perishes with his family.” He had to put in all his energy to achieve the breakthrough in prayer. The enemy of persistency is alternatives. If you have options, you will lack the drives to persist through resistance and obstacles. Don’t let go until you get there!!
Beloved, your breakthrough is near, persist until you get there.
Prayer for today: Lord, I refuse to give up, it is my opposition that will give up in Jesus name.
