    We've prayed so long, so hard, without any results. There is great assurance that He hears every prayer. He has made everything beautiful in its time. The longer a prayer is delayed, the more perfect it will come forth at last. The deeper the silence, the louder the answer.

    WHY DOESN'T GOD ANSWER MY PRAYERS? “So, I say to you, ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” (Luke 11:9) We've prayed so long and so hard without any results. There is great assurance that ...read more

    As sweet as these promises are, they do not come to pass at our own timing but according to God’s timing. God is not a God of “promise and fail.”

    TEXT: JOHN 16: 24 “Until now, you have asked nothing in my name. Ask and you will receive that your joy may be full.”(John 16:24). The scripture tells us that whatever we ask in the name of Jesus shall be given to us (John 14:14). Matthew 7: 7 also promised that we should ask and it shall be ...read more

    Martin Luther said, "Prayer is not overcoming God’s reluctance, but laying hold of His willingness;" but if we want to lay hold of God’s willingness, we must keep on asking God to keep his word, expecting Him to work in unusual and unstoppable ways.

    Mark Ashton, in his book, A Voice in the Wilderness, talks about a small boy who was writing a letter to God. Christmas was approaching and he wanted to ask God for certain Christmas presents he badly wanted. He began his letter with these words: “I’ve been good for six months now.” But then ...read more
