People often want to know why their prayers are not answered
Dear friend, one thing we must know and that is that GOD LOVES us
He loves each and every one of us
and He hears our prayers
but God has one objective and that is to draw us closer to Him
and He wants to give us everything
the very best
He promises us, eternal life in His presence, in the Kingdom of Heaven
IF we OBEY HIM
IF we DRAW CLSOER TO HIM
and now people say: WHY ARE MY PRAYERS NOT ANSWERED?
There are many reasons
One of the biggest reasons is that people have their mind set on their own agenda, not about God, it is about me and what I want to achieve
and then they PRAY and they expect God to fit into their agenda
Dear friends, God does not fit into our agenda
We become part of the Kingdom of God
we submit ourselves to Him
and we PRAY ACCORDING TO the WILL OF GOD
we say: LORD, LET YOUR WILL BE DONE, LET YOUR KINGDOM COME
I SUBMIT my self to YOU
We cannot fit God into our plan, we must fit into God's plan and God's plan is best
As Jesus said: SEEK YE FIRST THE KINGDOM OF GOD and HIS RIGTEOUSNESS
and ALL the other things will be added unto you
God wants to give us the best
BUT people LIVE IN SIN
and then they EXPECT GOD to answer their prayers
FIRST go and REPENT
TURN AWAY FROM YOUR SIN
Repent, ask forgiveness
and then come into the prsence of God and ask Him and He will answer your prayer
Often GOD SPEAKS to us through HARDSHIP, through CALAMITY, through TRIALS and TRIBULATIONS
because we LEARN through what we SUFFER
If God gives us our way, we DRIFT from Him
but when life is DIFFICULT, then we start DRAWING CLOSER TO GOD
we say: Lord I don't know what to do
We learn through what we suffer
and often God uses suffering to draw us closer to Him
Why is that, because he hates us? NO!
It is the only way that He can get through to our thick sculls
It is because He loves us friends
God loves you
and He is drawing you closer to Him
He wants you to be with Him for ever
but you've got to remove your SINS and your SELFISHNESS away from you
REPENT of it and God will answer your prayer
because God loves you
He loves me, He loves us immensely
He proved His love, by sending Jesus, to come and die on a Cross on Calvary
So that we can be UNITED WITH HIM
IF we OBEY JESUS
And Jesus said: He said, REPENT, turn away from your wickedness
come follow Me, obey Me, be baptized in water
and I will give you My Spirit
and My Spirit will guide you into all truth
Dear friend, Jesus loves you
and He wants to answer your prayers, He wants to give you the very best
BUT you got to seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. You must STOP SINNING!
You must SUBMIT TO GOD
and He will answer every prayer
He will give you everything
He will give you the Kingdom of Heaven
That is what HE PROMISED
to those who OBEY HIM
How can we REJECT such a wonderful offer?
God wants to give us the very best
He wants to answer every prayer
BUT FIRST we've got to SEEK HIM
SEEK HIS KINGDOM and HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS
and He will bring us into His presence.
May Jesus bless you.
