RECIEVING ANSWERS TO OUR PRAYERS...PART 2

RECIEVING ANSWERS TO OUR PRAYERS...PART 2

Greetings to you Lovely buddies! I promised last week that I was going to bring you the last part how to receive answers to our prayers. Now the last part is this:

3. BELIEVING IS SEEING

Mark 11:20-24 NKJV

Now in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots. And Peter, remembering, said to Him, “Rabbi, look! The fig tree which You cursed has withered away.” So Jesus answered and said to them, “Have faith in God.  For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.  Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

It is often said that 'seeing is believing'. Our main focus is on verse 24, which says that 'whatever things you ask when you pray,  believe that you recieve them, and you shall have them'.

Thus contrary to world views, in Christ,  BELIEVING IS SEEING. The ending part says that whatever thing you prayed for, the fact that you don’t see them physically doesn't mean God didnt give it, you should first believe you have received them, and you shall have it.

When Jesus cursed the fig tree in Mark 11, there was no sign that the fig tree had died. Its leaves were still green at the time. But what we didn't see was what was happening to the roots of that fig tree when Jesus gave the word.  Thus by morning, everybody saw the results, the fig tree had its leaves dried up,  that was when the disciples believed what Jesus prayed for the day before.

The world will always have contrary views to what God has told you. When we ask God for something, instantly there is a response in the spirit, the answer is ALWAYS released. It takes your faith and confession to bring the answer to light. The fact that you didn’t see your admission letter doesn’t mean that the administration of your preferred school is not working on it. Lol

Let your reasoning, your talk and your attitude show that God answered what you asked for in prayer. 

 Sometimes we get desperate when it seems to keep long, but that doesn’t mean you should despair, because the moment you do that, you have nullified what you prayed for, you have aborted it before the answer even reaches you.

So brethren, in-between 'AMEN' and 'THERE IT IS',  is our FAITH!!!

And you have enough faith to recieve anything you asked for in prayer, so draw on that faith inside you, and enjoy the benefits thereof.

Don’t be distracted by people and circumstances around you, that is why we need to FOCUS on JESUS, the author and perfector of our faith. In other words FOCUS ON THE WORD OF GOD!  When we do this, we will not be distracted, and we can bring answers to being in our lives.

WE NEED TO FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT OF FAITH. It means holding on to God's word and conquering doubt and fear, not regarding your present circumstances, but seeing yourself in the light of God's Word despite adverse circumstances around you. You just can’t bow to them! Holding on to the SPIRITUAL even though the PHYSICAL seems real, but believing and knowing that the SPIRITUAL is more real.

HOLD ON TO YOUR FAITH BUDDIES,  BECAUSE YOUR FAITH IS REAL AND POTENT TO PRODUCE RESULTS IN YOUR LIFE!!

In our next post, we will talk about PRAYER: THE HIGHER TRUTH.
