“This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him.”
1 John 5:14-15 NIV
Sometimes, when we ask for things, we don't get what we wanted. It is because of only 3 reasons:
- We don't pray in faith
- We don't pray in agreement with God's Will
- We haven't had the Name of Jesus given to us.
Let's focus on A - We don't pray in faith
When we don't pray in faith, God won't answer us. This is because we have to believe in what we are praying for and believe He has already We need to believe in what we are praying for. That is faith. Believing that God has done it.
Next - We don't pray in agreement with God's Will.
Sometimes when we pray, we don't know if that is what God wants us to pray about. Our verse for today said anything we ask ACCORDING TO HIS WILL is what He'll give us. How do you know God's Will? You meditate on God's Word everyday and listen for God's Voice, even when you are outside or not reading the Word! Just be quiet and listen.
Lastly, We haven't had the Name of Jesus given to us.
God needs to give us His Name before we start preaching, teaching, healing and delivering. Some pastors pray without God or even with the power of Satan! But with Satan's power, the people are going to experience more pain and keep coming back. And Satan will attack the pastor too! That's the reason! We need to have the Name of Jesus otherwise we will stumble and fall when the attacks come!
