A word of Wisdom: Effectual Prayer
Effectual Prayer
All things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Matthew 21:22 KJV
What things soever ye desire,
when ye pray,
believe that ye receive them,
and ye shall have them.
Mark 11:24 KJV
If you ask, you must believe, for God is only pleased when you believe.
You have to be in the right condition for asking.
This is the condition:
Let him ask in faith, nothing wavering.
For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
James 1:6-8 KJV
I want to impress upon you that if you ask multiple times for anything, just for the sake of asking, it shows you are an unbelieving person.
If you really believe, you will ask God and know that He has abundance for your every need.
If you really believe, you know absolutely that God hears your every prayer and He will answer it, every single one of it.
But if you go right in the face of belief and keep on asking, He knows very well that you do not mean what you ask, so you do not get it.
God does not honor unbelief;
He honors faith.
If you ask God once you will get it.
But if you ask a thousand times a day until you do not even know you are asking, you will get nothing.
If you would really get down to business and ask God once and definitely to receive it, believing it,
what would you do?
You would begin to thank Him and praise Him for it because you would know He had given it.
God wants to lift us up.
He wants us to get away from our own thoughts and our own foolishness, and get to a definite place,
believing in His Presence,
right here and now.
“He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him” (Hebrew 11:6).
Many people receive no blessing because they did not thank God for the last blessing.
A thankful heart is a receiving heart.
God wants to keep you in the place of constant believing.
Have you gotten to the place where you dare to do this?
Have you gotten to the place where you are no longer going to murmur when you are undergoing a trial?
Are you going to go around weeping, telling people about it,
or are you going to say,
“Thank you, Jesus, for putting me above it all!
Praise Jesus Christ!”
Now,
Ask God in the Name of Jesus and begin thanking Him and praising Him,
because He never breaks His word.
You would be perfect.
Even though I do not see it all, I am going to thank and praise God.
“Only believe” (Mark 5:36).
