HOW TO GET ANSWERS TO YOUR PRAYERS

 "If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you." John 15:7


Everyone desires to see God answering their prayers. We pray every day, but not everything we pray for is answered by God. Even for you, you have probably asked God for things that He hasn't answered yet.

The absence of God in your heart is one of the reasons why your prayers are not answered. This scripture shows us God's promise to answer our prayers, but God has set conditions. The condition is "If you remain in me and my words remain in you" then "ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you."

God cannot do something that goes against His Word. That’s why He says, "If you remain in Him and His words remain in you", the Word of God will equip you with understanding and guidance to pray according to His will. James 4:3 says, "When you ask, you do not receive because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures."

Also, when He says "If you remain in me," it is very important to always stay in Christ because in Him is the inheritance of the riches and glory of God. Romans 8:17 says, "Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ." So whatever God gives you, it is because of Christ who lives in you. The things you receive from God belong to Christ; you qualify to have them because you are co-heirs with Christ.

Therefore, it is very important to keep praying to God and depending on Him, but know that there are principles and laws He has set to govern his kingdom. If you follow them, your prayers will be answered. Also, remember every prayer you pray and request you make must be supported by scripture.

Prayer: Lord Jesus, I ask you to hold my hand so I may not be far from you. Help me to keep your word in my heart so that my prayers may find favour with you. Amen.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

MISPLACED FEAR

Matthew 10:28  (NKJV) says: “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”   This is a direct call from Jesus to correct our fears. Many people fear human threats, sickness, poverty, storms, or death. Yet Jesus reminds us that these things can only touch the body. The true danger is sin, because it separates us from God and leads to eternal destruction. The only fear that matters is the fear of God, for He alone holds the destiny of both the body and soul. One day I was in a garage fixing my car. It was an open space and suddenly it began raining heavily. All the mechanics rushed to take shelter inside. As we stood, they began sharing jokes, laughing about drinking and the women they slept with. I always preach to them, telling them to repent and receive Jesus. But they laughed it off. As we were standing there inside, suddenly the storm grew stronger, with thunder and lightning flashin...
