Faith That Refuses to Quit | Luke 18:1-8

Preachings from Deliverance Church Umoja Lanet. Faith that refuses to quit is the faith Jesus unveils in Luke 18:1–8—the relentless confidence that keeps knocking when heaven seems silent and keeps believing when circumstances scream “impossible.” It is the spirit of the persistent widow who faced power, resistance, delay, and injustice, yet refused to retreat. Her perseverance wasn’t arrogance; it was revelation—she understood the nature of the Judge she approached. Jesus contrasts her experience with our Father’s character to show that if an unjust judge eventually yields, how much more will a righteous God answer His chosen ones who cry to Him day and night! This faith doesn’t faint, doesn’t fold, and doesn’t negotiate with discouragement. It prays through pressure, praises through pain, and stands when everything else wants to collapse. Faith like this does not merely ask; it insists. It does not simply hope; it holds on. And Jesus ends with a prophetic challenge: when the Son of Man returns, will He find this unbreakable, unquenchable, persistent kind of faith still burning in His people?
