1 | Why great expectations come back small | Bible general Archive 3 | just777me | 184401 | ||
I am not a new Christian but I have a old question. Why is it that when a person believes for great things and trust that the Lord will perform but small things continuously comes back to them? Am I missing something in the prayer or waiting process? I realy need to know if I'm missing something here. I know what God is able to exceed my expectations. |

Hello just777, welcome to the forum :) Since you describe yourself as not being a new Christian allow me to speak frankly. I don't believe that there is a "greater" thing than the Lord saving your lost soul. Since He has apparently done that, every other blessing He might provide in this life would be "small" in comparison wouldn't you agree? By you wording I am inclinded to believe that you are referring to material blessings. In this case it might be appropriate to say that instead of focusing on what you might be "missing" regarding "prayer or waiting process" you might focus more on your relationship with your saviour. What I mean by this is to focus on what you might do in response to His having saved you instead of what He might do additionally for you. Where your prayers are for the salvation and physical welfare of others, continue these prayers in faith. What might be missing regarding other prayer is not recognizing the motive for your prayer. consider Proverbs 16:2 and James 4:3. There's not a special formula. Hope this helps, Jeff |
