Waiting for God’s answer

While I was praying this morning I said to God, why is it so hard for some people to commit and follow through on what they have said they would do?

God’s answer came back quickly. He said son, if they aren’t willing to commit to Me as they promised, what makes you think they will do what they said for you?

This rocked me, but at the same time made perfect sense.

So the question is, can you even spare two minutes a day for God?

Over the coming weeks i am going to post devotions and thoughts that shouldn’t take more than two minutes of your time.

I encourage you to seek God and commit to Him.

Are you waiting for answers from God?

When you think your prayers aren’t being answered, do you get discouraged and cry out,

“God, why aren’t you helping me?”

Yet God has promised to answer your prayers.

“Ask, and it will be given to you, seek, and you will find, knock, and it will be opened for you” this is what the bible tells us in Matthew 7:7

However, sometimes you don’t see the answer for a while, or God may say no because He has a different, and better plan.

So you are exhorted to ask, but your request must be.

First, in faith (Matthew 21:22)

Second, without selfish motives (James 4:3) 

And thirdly you must ask, according to the will of God(1 John 5:14-15)

Let’s all pray today, Lord I confess that I am not good at waiting for Your answers to my prayers. But as I wait, I believe You will build my faith, purify my heart, and show me your will. 

Amen 

Thank you Lord

I really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word. When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer. There’s nothing that’s too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!

You’re important to God, and you’re important to us at www.faithministries.com.au. When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you. So whatever you’re concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you! Or even if you just want to say Hi, you can contact us
