Next Week It

RETURN VISIT: HOW DOES GOD ANSWER OUR PRAYERS?

KECIA: HI MONICA, LAST WEEK I LEFT YOU WITH A QUESTION, WHAT CAN WE PRAY ABOUT? BEFORE YOU ANSWER, I HAVE A SCRIPTURE THAT I WANT TO SHARE WITH YOU HERE AT 1JOHN 5:14:

{AND THIS IS THE CONFIDENCE THAT WE HAVE TOWARD HIM, THAT NO MATTER WHAT WE ASK ACCORDING TO HIS WILL, HE HEARS US.}

KECIA: MONICA, FROM READING THIS SCRIPTURE, IF YOU NEEDED A CAR, YOU WOULDN’T ASK GOD FOR A ROLLS ROYCE AND THINK THAT IT WILL HAPPEN WOULD YOU? OR LETS SAY YOU GO TO A CASINO, YOU WOULD’NT ASK GOD FOR A MILLION DOLLARS WOULD YOU?

MONICA: NO

KECIA: WHY? BUT THE SCRIPTURE SAYS NO MATTER WHAT WE ASK RIGHT?

MONICA: YES, BUT IT ALSO SAYS, “ACCORDING TO HIS WILL”

KECIA: YES, FOR OUR PRAYERS TO BE ACCEPTABLE TO GOD, WE NEED TO PRAY ACCORDING TO HIS WILL. IN ORDER TO DO THAT WE NEED TO STUDY THE BIBLE SO THAT WE CAN GET TO KNOW HIM WELL. IF WE DO, OUR PRAYERS WILL BE PLEASING TO HIM.

KECIA: AND ALSO MONICA, WE MUST NOT FORGET TO THANK GOD FOR WHAT HE HAS DONE FOR US AND ASK HIM TO HELP OTHERS. SINCE GOD IS INTERESTED IN OUR SPIRITUAL WELFARE, ANYTHING AFFECTING OUR SPIRITUALITY IS AN APPROPRIATE SUBJECT FOR PRAYER, AND THIS WILL BE ACCORDING TO GOD’S WILL.

KECIA: SO MONICA I WOULD LIKE TO LEAVE YOU WITH THIS QUESTION, HOW DOES GOD ANSWER OUR PRAYERS? WILL NEXT WEEK AROUND THE SAME TIME BE OK?

MONICA: SURE, THAT WILL BE FINE…
