About prayer — When we think of prayer, we think of it as a means primarily to make our requests known to God. There are other aspects of prayer, but today we’re concerned with persistence. Which Christ talks about here in Matthew 7:7–8 “Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks, receives. Everyone who seeks, finds. And to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened.
