The Parable of the Persistent Widow - Luke 18:1-8

Описание: When you look at all that is going on in the world today, don’t you sometimes wish that Jesus would just come back soon and bring an end to all that is wrong and ungodly? Have you ever prayed that Jesus would come back and fix it all? Is it wrong to pray for that? As we open God’s word this week, we will get Jesus’ answer.

In Luke 18:1-8, Jesus encourages His disciples to pray about the future with a parable about a widow who keeps asking an unfair judge for help. She's being treated badly and wants the judge to use his power to help her. We're pretty much like that widow. Our only real source of help is God, just like the widow's only real source of help is the judge. She keeps coming back again and again until the judge finally gives her justice just to get her to stop bothering him.

And this is where understanding the parable gets strange. On the surface, it seems as though the point of the parable is that if you can wear out an unjust human judge, then you may stand a chance of wearing out God so that He answers your prayers just to get you “off his back.” But that can’t be true, can it?

Join us as we untangle this strange parable and unlock what could bring a new dimension to your prayer life.
