Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering: (for He is faithful that promised).
The added parenthetical note in this verse is the reason prayer is so powerful and reassuring. Perhaps we could rephrase this scripture this way: Because the God who promised is faithful, we can hold fast to the profession of our faith. We can be unmovable as a result of our prayers and trust in the Lord. He has never lied. He has never gone back on His word. He has never failed us. He has answsered our prayers and provides for us beyond our expectations. Our own faithfulness and promises cannot compare to the ever-abiding faithfulness of our God. During these 40 days of prayer and fasting be mindful that 40 days do not compare to the lifetime of blessings and eternal hope we have in Jesus. Let us not waver as we pray for revival and God's favor in all that we do to glorify Him.
Pastor John
