NASB | 1 John 5:14 This is the confidence which we have before Him, that, if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 John 5:14 This is the [remarkable degree of] confidence which we [as believers are entitled to] have before Him: that if we ask anything according to His will, [that is, consistent with His plan and purpose] He hears us. |
Bible Question: I have read the scriptures about prayer but I am not sure about God not hearing a sinner's pray.I have heard some say that God hears and grants prayer requests according to the sincerety of the heart.My question is does God answer every pray whether the person was confessed Christ as Saviour or not. |
Bible Answer: As 1 Jo 5:14 shows, a requirement for our prayers to be heard is that they harmonize with God's will. So, a "Christian" football player may sincerely ask for God to make his team win - but is that in harmony with God's will? It certainly wouldn't harmonize with God being impartial as noted in Acts 10:34,35. |
