I feel it validates petition in prayer and that Christ was telling us it’s okay to ask! Christ doesn't just tell us it's OK to ask. He insists that we should ask ... repeatedly and at length..
See Luke 18:1-8, for example.

I love that passage! I have been pestering the Judge for 30 years for the gift of faith for my husband. I’m not giving up until the last breath I take. Maybe I’m not being “insistent” enough!
