Supporting Prayer

And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.
[Matthew 21:22, NKJV]

Prayer is a means of communicating with God, during which time we express our desires to Him or wait on Him for direction and instruction. Our prayers come in different forms; at times as short bursts of immediate need or purposeful time spent in fellowship with God. Whenever and however we pray, we desire one thing in common. Answers.

Over the years and on daily basis, God proves Himself a prayer answering God. He is specialized in surprising His people with amazing answers to prayers, which we sometimes share amongst folks as testimonies. Since we have a supreme God whose ears are inclined to hear and help us, let us all go with boldness to Him communicating our hearts desires and requests in prayer, considering none too small or too big.

When you go to God in prayer for anything you can't handle, support your prayers with faith, and believe that He will answer you. Faith opens your eyes to actions you need to take in order to receive your answers. Faith will position you positively to make the most of every God given opportunity. If however you pray and don't believe God to answer, you will not identify the moment when the answers come because of doubt and uncertainty, often time the opportunity is missed. He who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him, Heb 11:6.

Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him. 1 John 5:14-15

Prayer: Almighty God, I bless you for your love and ability to answer my prayers. I am especially grateful to have you in my life, thank you. Father I pour out to you every weight that has burdened my heart, every challenge that stands in my way and every weakness I bear, turn your ears to my prayer's Lord with answers that will glorify your name. I believe that as you have heard me, you have answered my prayers because of your unending love for me. Thank you Jesus.
