The Prayer that God Answers

in #steemchurch5 years ago

Prayer is the lifewire that holds the relationship of any believer with God. It is our means of communication with the supernatural.

Some days ago while sending HEARTs to goldencenser, I received this word from 2 Timothy

What you heard from me, keep as the pattern of sound teaching, with faith and love in Christ Jesus. Guard the good deposit that was entrusted to you - guard it with the help of the Holy Spirit who lives in us. [2 Timothy 1:13-14 NIV]

Guarding the word of God in our hearts us very important and crucial for a successful walk in following Christ. Each of our lives amd successes are tied to the word and that not in book, but in our hearts.

The essence before storing up God's word in our heart are numerous, but the empahsis of this blog will be on prayers. We must store God's word in our hearts so we can be able to pray right and receive answers to our prayers. See what the scripture says:

1 John 5: 14 (AMP)

And this is the confidence (the assurance, the privilege of boldness) which we have in Him: [we are sure] that if we ask anything (make any request) according to His will (in agreement with His own plan), He listens to and hears us

From the above scripture, we can see that the assurance we have in getting our prayers answered is when we pray in line with the word of God.

The word of God is the will of God which signifies his plan and purpose for our lives. When we pray in line with the will of God, then, we will certainly receive answers to our prayers.

God will never answer prayers that are not embedded in His word. This is because his intentions concerning us are best towards an end that is expected.

When we walk in this consciousness, then we will always receive whatever we ask for in prayers.

Note that prayers are not just mere repetition of words, rather, commiting God to his words.

God bless you.
