So Jesus gave prayer instruction that hits the enemy head-on. He let you know that God will fight for you every step of the way. The gift of prayer bring you to the cross and the risen Lord. It's a gift that let's you say, "Jesus, my Savior, the one committed to my life, do your thing! Battle away for me! And battle He does. The ultimate Answer to your prayers is fighting for you. The living Lord Jesus Christ never lets up in His work to save and sustain you.
