Day 17 | Calling upon God

Thursday, February 17, 2022

“Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.”

Psalms 50:15

“The greatest victories gained for the cause of God are not the result of labored argument, ample facilities, wide influence, or abundance of means; they are gained in the audience chamber with God, when with earnest, agonizing faith men lay hold upon the mighty arm of power.” 

Gospel Workers, p. 259

“Jacob prevailed because he was persevering and determined. His experience testifies to the power of importunate prayer. It is now that we are to learn this lesson of prevailing prayer, of unyielding faith. The greatest victories to the church of Christ or to the individual Christian are not those that are gained by talent or education, by wealth or the favor of men. They are those victories that are gained in the audience chamber with God when earnest, agonizing faith lays hold upon the mighty arm of power.”

Patriarchs and Prophets, p. 203.
