GOD IS FAITHFUL TO THOSE WHO ARE FAITHFUL TO HIM
"He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them." Psalm 145:19
Maybe you have asked God for something for a long time but haven't received an answer and have questioned why your prayers aren't answered.
Today's word says, "He fulfills the desires of those who fear him." Here, the first thing to know is that God is talking about people who fear Him. If you have been faithful to God in loving, obeying, and following what He says, know that God will be faithful to you as you are to Him. Whenever you ask, He will hear and answer you, as He said, "He hears their cry and saves them." Also, in Psalms 91:14, the word of God says “Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
So, the important thing here is to ask yourself, "Am I a God-fearing person?" "Am I truly faithful to Him?" Many Christians complain that God does not answer their prayers, and maybe there is a prayer that God has not answered for you. There are many reasons why prayers are not answered, but today, we focus on the major reason for lacking faithfulness to God.
Some people have created their righteousness before God and feel they deserve to be heard and have their requests fulfilled for reasons they made up themselves, which is not right before God. You must be holly and follow His commandments for Him to fulfill your desires. John 9:31 says "Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth."
Some of you commit sins and consider what you do as a small matter that does not affect your relationship with God. You think what you did is not sin and can not hinder your prayers. You must know that every sin has significant effects on your life; do not think stealing, fornication, or lying are minor issues. Today, decide to change and fear God, and be faithful to God in everything He has commanded you because "He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them."
Prayer: Thank you, LORD, for your faithfulness to me, and help me to be faithful to you. In Jesus' name, I pray. Amen.
