I know we all wonder why we do not have certain things and yet we pray so hard but never receive anything!
Does that mean that God does not hear or answer prayers?
The scripture states:
[SIZE=6]James 4:1-3 New King James Version (NKJV)[/SIZE]
1 Where do wars and fights come from among you? Do they not come from your desires for pleasure that war in your members? 2 You lust and do not have. You murder and covet and cannot obtain. You fight and war. Yet you do not have because you do not ask. 3 You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.
The bible states that we do not have because we do not ask, and when we ask, we ask so that we can use it on our own pleasures!
Thus the secret of receiving from God is to be specific on what you want from Him.
Take an example from a normal human being: Your child comes to you and says âdad/mum, give me money⌠I really need moneyâ, can you give that child the money they desire so much? Ofcoz you wonât.
But if he/she comes to you and says " dad/mum, give me money to buy a revision book for my studies for I really need it", isnât it obvious that you are more likely to giving them the cash or even buy the book yourself??
Letâs not go to God with Vague prayers.
He knows that you wish to have money for many needs one being showing off, killing the haters, drinking, marrying, buying nice things and to distance yourself from family plus many more⌠Then you go asking for money from Him and expect He will just give u money abundantly without you being specific?! Letâs get realistic.
Questions and comments are welcomed⌠Feel free to be part of this thread.
You are wrong, firstly prayer has never been rigged.
Secondly, there is no third option For God. The bible actually states that its either a Yes or No, anything else apart from these two is Evil.
