Scripture Union Daily Guide 27th February 2026 Outline
Today’s passage is a story to illustrate the need for persistence in prayer. The big lesson is that our heavenly Father is a willing and patient listener. He is ready to answer the prayer of those who are obedient to Him and pray consistently according to His will (Hebrews 10:36; 1 John 5:14). Jesus taught us to continue in prayer until the answer comes.
Notice how emphatic the Lord was in Luke 11:9. There are times to ask, seek and knock. These are different levels in prayer to clarify the fact that we need persistence in our prayers if we are to prevail (Psalm 50:15; Mark 11:24; John 14:13-14). What encouragement do you find in Luke 11:10 as you persist in your prayer project?
Comparing the parallel statement in Matthew 7:11 with Luke 11:13; we discover that Luke talked about giving the Holy Spirit to those who ask, and Matthew talked about good things. The truth is that good things come through the Holy Spirit. We must persist to prevail, if we are expecting good things about the kingdom and in our lives today. Pray! Pray! Wait! Wait! Be patient and the answer will come. As you persist, you will prevail.
Food for Thought
For everyone that asks, receives, he that seeks, finds and he that knocks, the door shall be opened unto him.
