Luke 18:1-8: The parable of the unjust judge challenges our understanding of power. Jesus uses this unsettling story to reveal the strength found in persistent prayer. The widow’s perseverance, despite facing an unjust authority, reflects genuine power — faith that endures beyond weakness. Like Jacob wrestling with God, or Paul proclaiming strength in prison, persistence in faith becomes a source of power. True strength is not in worldly authority but in unwavering trust in God. The widow’s persistence teaches us that faith, prayer, and endurance empower us to keep seeking God’s justice and righteousness, even when circumstances seem hopeless.
