LOVE WORTH FINDING 25TH JULY 2025 FRIDAY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE BY ADRIAN ROGERS
TOPIC: Never Give Up
“Then they rose early in the morning and worshiped before the LORD, and returned and came to their house at Ramah. And Elkanah knew Hannah his wife, and the Lord remembered her. So it came to pass in the process of time that Hannah conceived and bore a son, and called his name Samuel, saying, ‘Because I have asked for him from the LORD.’” – 1 Samuel 1:19-20
Ponder This
Hannah was a woman of prayer, but not just prayer easily uttered and soon forgotten. She prayed and continued to pray before this child was born and after this child was born. If I had a problem and I wanted somebody to pray for me, and Hannah were around, I would want her to pray for me. She knew how to get hold of God and not let go.

Never waver in your prayer, no matter how dark the circumstances. There is a principle of persistence. “But those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength” (Isaiah 40:31). Psalm 27:14 says, “Wait on the Lord, be of good courage.” Parents, there will be times when you think you’ve failed. There were times when I thought we just weren’t going to make it. Raising children is not easy. And the world, the flesh, and the devil pulled at our children. But we continued to love and continued to pray. There’s power in persistence. If you’ve got a wayward child or other loved one, keep praying.
- For whom have you persistently prayed? What have you prayed for them?
- What are some things that lead you to grow tired of praying? How have you been discouraged by seemingly unanswered prayer? What is the value in praying persistently, no matter the outcome?
Practice This
Admit to God why it is difficult for you to pray persistently. Ask a trusted believing friend how to stay persistent in prayer.
