God's Will Is "Good, Acceptable & Perfect" - Romans 12:2
Contributed by Samuel Lazarus on Oct 9, 2011 (message contributor)
Summary: Sometimes it might seem like everything is going upside down. Sometimes it could even end up in failure in spite of many prayers. Does it mean God didn't answer our prayers?

Bible says God's will is "Good, Acceptable & Perfect" - Romans 12:2
God's plans for us are a million times better than our human brain could ever think of. "For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope" - Jer 29:11
It is a promise for us (His children)! & He also promised us that
"all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose
Romans 8:28 (ESV)"
All things include everything, even failures. This doesn’t mean God didn’t hear all our prayers.
God definitely has a plan as he promised us in Jeremiah 29:11 which is good, acceptable and perfect for us. That is why we ought to pray and ask God which pleases Him or which is God’s will. I use these following lines when I pray “If it‘s your will my living God, Let it be done”
“not what I will, but what you will - Mark 14:36 (ESV)”
