As Christians, we know of the importance and the power of prayer. Too often Christians become discourage and give up on prayer because our circumstance don't match our prayer request, or our prayers aren't answered within our timeline. Satan can often use this discouragement to keep Christians from being effective for God's kingdom. As we pray it is important to pray within God's will, to have endurance while we pray, and to have faith that God will answer our prayers. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man has power as its working!
