Proverbs 3: 5-6, Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.
The words of these verses and those following give us a lift in our spirits. For the majority of us, the verse seems exciting, as long as things are going good.
Did you ever stop to think, when things don't look so good, how often you start to doubt and fear? That is a sign that your faith is beginning to slip a little because you're starting to think negatively.
Do you realize that when you start to think negatively, you are showing faith in that direction. You have faith something will go wrong. It is a fact we get what we expect, so if you see a negative result, you are putting yourself in danger of achieving that negative result.
Psalm 37: 4-5, take delight in the Lord, and He will give you your heart's desires. Commit your way to the Lord; Trust in Him, and He will act.
Philippians 4: 6-7, don't worry about anything, but in everything, through prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your request to God. And the peace of God which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.
If you read the Bible, no doubt you have read about the importance of God's timing in the process of prayers being answered.
Psalm 27: 14, wait for the Lord; be strong and let your heart be courageous. Wait for the Lord.
Some people think their prayer was not answered because it didn't happen right away. Most of the time it was not God's timing, not a question of a prayer not being answered. His timing is perfect. Ecclesiastes tells us there is a time for everything under the sun.
Another common problem is not giving the problem to God. Sometimes we give the problem to God, but then we start to get a little concerned, and without realizing it we take it back, and it is no longer in God's hands. At that point of course, failure is inevitable.
2 Corinthians 5: 7 for we walk by faith, not by sight.
Proverbs 16: 3, commit your way to the Lord, and your plans will be established.
Commit your prayer to the Lord. Ask the Holy Spirit, in the name of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ, and begin thanking and Praising Almighty God for the answer, and just believe. God bless you and your family. Praise The Lord!
Remember Jesus loves you.
Prayer of salvation.
My Lord Jesus Christ, I thank you and Praise you for what you did on the cross for me. By your stripes I was healed and your blood washed away my sins. Your death and resurrection made my salvation possible. I confess my sins, and ask you to come into my heart as my personal savior.
Amen!
Praise The Lord!
