Day 166 of 365
Wrestling in Prayer
Colossians 4:12
Colossians 4:12
“Epaphras, who is one of you and a servant of Christ Jesus, sends greetings. He is always wrestling in prayer for you, that you may stand firm in all the will of God, mature and fully assured.”
Reflection
Prayer isn't always peaceful - sometimes it's wrestling. Epaphras wrestled in prayer for believers. Wrestling means intensity, persistence, and urgency. It's crying out when there's no answer yet. It's holding on when you want to let go. It's believing when sight suggests otherwise. Some prayers require wrestling. Don't give up. Keep praying. Keep believing. Keep wrestling. God honors persistent, faith-filled prayer. Your wrestling matters. Your prayers are working even when you can't see results yet.
