Earnest prayer, which is founded on God’s word, is the kind of prayer that changes hopeless situations. When you engage in this kind of prayer, you don’t give up, you don’t give in. You persist in praying until you get your desired result.
If you will ever change things in your life, and in the lives of others, then you must learn to pray fervently and with deep convictions. Oftentimes, this kind of prayer touches your soul and emotions; it is sustained and continues over a period of time.
