Acts 12:16
Excerpted from: Prayer and PersistenceWell, Peter went to the house and he knocked on the door. The young lady, Rhoda, came and answered the door, and then she slammed the door right in Peter's face and ran back in and said, "Peter's angel was out there." It was not Peter's angel, it was Peter. But notice what Peter did, verse 16...
We are back to the persistence again. Peter did not just knock one time. Even when the door was slammed in his face, he continued to knock on the door. Why? Because he was requesting to be allowed in. That is the point regarding persistence. When we want something done, we usually have to keep after it until it is done.
