Our Father in Heaven always answers the prayers of all His children who are faithful to His Word. The condition to receive answered prayers is having faith in God’s Word. Hebrews 11:6 says, “But without faith, it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is a re-warder of those who diligently seek Him.” This text is key to all answered prayers as it sets out the condition which is Believing and Obeying GOD’S WORD. When you believe, it means that you are converted to Jesus Christ who came into this world as the physical manifestation of the Father in Heaven. You must increase your faith in God through diligently studying the Word of God. The Word of God builds in you the character of the Son of God. When you have the character of Jesus Christ in you which is the righteousness of God, you will know that all your prayers will certainly be answered by the Father in Heaven. Isaiah 59:2-3, shows that it is sin that is the reason for any unanswered prayers. Sin is the nature of Satan. When people live in sin, they have no interest in diligently studying the Word of God. You may say that you believe in God but why are my prayers not being answered? Let me tell you, believing in God alone is not enough, but it is only when you believe and do the will of God that your prayers will be answered. James 2:19 says, “You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe and tremble!” You must know that the Word of God is the light of every believer. It directs your path. When you have the Word of God in you, you can never be discouraged or disadvantaged by anything at all. God is trustworthy. Even if the road feels uncertain, His direction is always right. Do not be discouraged by slow progress or unanswered prayer requests, remember that God is only a call away as Jeremiah 33 verse 3 says. Even time of waiting must not discourage you. God guides with wisdom and not with speed. Keep trusting His direction, even when it stretches your faith. You will not even say God has delayed responding to my prayer because God always answers according to His appropriate time. It took Abraham 25 years to receive the son of promise, but because Abraham believed and remained steadfast upon God’s Word, at the right time, Isaac was born. It took more than four hundred years for God to bring the children of Israel out of the Egyptian bondage according to His promise to Abraham. At the appointed time, Moses was raised to bring the children of Israel out of Egypt through the Red Sea. Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever as the Bible has said. Every step of obedience to the Word of God will lead you to your answered prayers. Believe in His Word and let it direct all your paths and I tell you, you will never be disappointed because the Father will answer all your prayers. God’s time is the best. Alleluia!

Prayer
