Faith Unlocks the Door



Faith shouldn't die if the answers come slowly, for the delay may be God's way of working his will in our lives. Our persistence is an expression of our faith that God answers our prayers



When you feel tired of praying, know that God is present, always listening, always answering--maybe not in ways you had hoped, but in ways that he knows are best.

 

"Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart." Colossians 4:2, NLT


Prayer is the key to heaven but faith unlocks the door
Words are so easily spoken
Prayer without faith is like a boat without an oar
Have faith when you speak to the Master
That's all he asks you for
Prayer is the key to heaven but faith unlocks the door
