What happens when you receive a revelation from God but have yet to see it manifested physically? You keep praying! 🙏🏽 In Persistent Prayer IV, Pastor Sam Adeyemi teaches on the power of persistent prayer, using the account of Elijah in 1 Kings 18:41–46 to show how prayer positions us to receive revelation and stand in faith until God's Word becomes a physical reality.

Prayer is more than presenting a list of requests to God. It is an opportunity to communicate with Him. Pastor Sam Adeyemi explains that when we talk, not much happens, but when God speaks, a lot happens. This reminds us that prayer must include moments when we are quiet enough to listen. We must make room not only to speak to God but also to hear and respond to Him. 📖 Theme of the Month: Persistent Prayer #DaystarChristianCentre #PersistentPrayer #PastorSamAdeyemi
