God hears prayers

and we know that He answers prayers. Here is a thought to ponder and remember when you have serious needs…or any need.

If you have been walking with the Lord for a long time then you have a reservoir of times He answered prayer and in amazing ways. He answers the longing of the heart as a matter of fact even before we utter the need to Him.

A time will come when you have a very pressing and important need. When this happens, we can go back and sift through the memories of all the times He did answer the prayer. And hindsight teaches us that if He didn’t it was only because He was doing something else and it was always better.

This knowledge gives me great rest. I do have what to me right now seems like a very big prayer. I am uttering it in my heart to Him even now. It is a terrific need. Will He answer? He will. This makes me rest right this minute.

If he doesn’t supernaturally bring me word from Himself then I know He is doing something bigger than what I can know right now. Just rest. He is teaching me. I do long for the answer not only today but right now. I wait Lord. How blessed I’d be to see it right now.

We shall see. I am 100 percent sure however that if I don’t see it. He has a better answer.

What true rest. Thank You Lord.
