1 | Is James 4:3 completely true? | James 4:3 | ariel levin | 223280 | ||
Shalom Azure, You known one possible reason for "unanswered" or "misanswered" prayer that biblenovice asked about is one that I'm sure most believers are guilty of: not waiting on the Lord. Like Abraham, we figure He needs a little human intervention or we jump on the first thing that comes along that fits into our budget assigning that as God's best. When we think we are in desperate need we forget how many times God's prophets urged His people to wait, to be still and to see God's mighty hand at work in our lives. Someone once shared this little gem with me: When God is preparing a work in our lives we can faintly see Him before us. But when He is actively doing a work in us (or for us) it's like He is out of sight, absent, we can only see clearly what He was doing after we have come through the thing. So when He seems the farthest away, that's actually the time that He is the closest. This is the time to be still and wait on the Lord. My 2cents to the mix |

2 | Is James 4:3 completely true? | James 4:3 | lionheart | 223293 | ||
Ariel, Its a good 2 cents to add my friend. It's so easy for people to put God in a box and then when God doesn't answer the way they think he should they will get upset. The truth be told God hears and answers prayer every time. We should be grateful to God that he doesn't always answer the way we expect. What we should consider is how Gods supplies our need. Phil 4:19. In Him, lionheart |
