“ . . .The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.” (James 5:16).
God listens to Your prayers. So, no matter how long it takes before you see the answer, you must have faith. “Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”” (Matthew 17:20).
So remember that God sees your faith in Him and will answer. “And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.” (John 14:13-14).
Therefore, I want to encourage you all to seek God and pray with God’s will in mind. “This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.” (1 John 5:14).
So remember James 5:16, “ . . .The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective.” (James 5:16). And Psalm 145:18-19, “The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them.” (Psalm 145:18-19).
