Day 16

If you are persistent you get it; If you are consistent you keep it..!
There is a need to be consistent and persistent in following God!..
There is a need to be consistent and persistent in prayer!..
There is a need to be consistent and persistent in doing good!..
There is a need to be consistent and persistent in declaring the Word of God over your life and your situation!..
Persistence & consistency in prayer and following instructions from the Word of God is like a person trying to break down a wall; the person uses the tool to strike the wall – once – twice – thrice, and so on. The wall may fall on the first strike, it may fall on the seventh strike, it could fall on the twenty first strike. Each strike is equally important and contributes to the final outcome. So be encouraged, be persistent and consistent because you are closer to your miracle than when you first began!..
The direction of our life depends on the consistency of our actions..
Some people give up easily. They make declarations over their health, their family or business or career for a few days and they give up if they don’t see immediate results..
God instructed the children of Israel to march around Jericho once for six days, and on the seventh day they should march around the city seven times. They obeyed God and did as He had instructed and the walls fell..
One interesting thing about Jericho is that it was on the way to the Promised Land. Something could be standing in the way to your “promised land”, your miracle, your place of blessing and rest. It would require consistency and persistence for you to have the walls of your own Jericho fall and the city destroyed so that you can move on to take possession of the things God has ordained for you..
Do not camp there, it is just an obstacle! Get up and continue your prayers, praises, speaking the Word of God to the situation, doing good, studying the Word and do these things consistently with persistence and you will soon find the walls falling down and you will move on to your promised land..
“So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.….”(Galatians 6:9)
