The Prayer List God Always Answers with a “Yes!”

The Prayer List God Always Answers with a “Yes!”

Unanswered prayer is a profound discouragement. We understand that God may have his reasons for not giving us $10 million. But what could possibly be wrong with bringing back a rebellious child or healing a young mother of cancer who has three children at home? These heart wrenching situations have caused Christians to walk away from Jesus in frustration and confusion. Their conclusion is: “If God doesn’t answer my prayer the way I think he should, either he is mad at me or he can’t answer my prayer. In either case, what’s the use continuing to believe in him?” 

There may be various reasons why God might not answer a prayer request. In some cases we might be able to understand his ways, in others his working remains mysterious. But there are prayers God always answers with a resounding “Yes!” In the coming weeks we’re going to study the fruits of the Spirit found in Galatians 5:22-23, nine characteristics or qualities God wants every believer to develop: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. 

If you have the feeling that your prayers are falling on deaf ears, start asking God to give you more of the fruits of the Spirit. You may just find you’ll start receiving not only those Christian qualities, but also the requests you thought God had forgotten.
