In the Gospel of Luke, Jesus told His disciples about things that would happen in the near and in the distant future. After discussing wars, earthquakes, and famines he warned them to watch out for the real horrors - that our hearts would be weighed down by the cares of this life and that we'd grow dull and not be ready for His return. He told us to pray for the strength to prevail against these treacheries. That Greek word for "the strength that prevails" is katischuo. Let's dive in and see how this verse applies to us and how we get this strength that prevails.
