How Do We Get Our Prayers Answered?
Isn't that the question we ask ourselves?
When we pray, we ask God for answers to what is going on in our lives and beg
him to fix them. Guess what! That is the wrong way. I have found when using
this method I might as well be blowing in the wind.
Would you go up to a stranger
and beg them to fix your problem? Maybe, if it were a dire set of consequences.
But I have something great to tell you.
God wants to answer your
prayers. He loves you more than you can imagine. But as Jesus taught us when He
was on earth, you must ask in line with God's will. Do you even know what God's
will is?
Here is a secret for you! His
will is in His book, The Bible. Regardless as to what your problem is, His
book, The Bible, tells you what His will is in that situation. So, all you must
do then is align your will with His.
For example: His will for your
health? To be healthy, whole, and healed. That has always been His will. Think
about when Jesus was on earth, anyone, and I mean any person, who ask Him to
heal them He did. Why? Because that is God's will.
Matthew 8:16-17: He healed
all who were sick, fulfilling the prophecy of Isaiah: "He took our
illnesses and bore our diseases."
Here is another scripture: Jeremiah 30:17: "For I
will restore health to you, and your wounds I will heal, declares the Lord."
You will find, throughout the
Old and New Testament, God's will is for us to be healed.
Get rid of your doubt!
Determine to believe His word, regardless of what you see, hear, or feel.
Take a hold of His word, put it
down into your heart, and know that you know that you know His will is for you
to be healed.
So, whatever your problem,
search the scripture for one pertaining to the problem and see what His will
says. Then pray, using His words, that it be done for you according to His
word.
Amen
