Oftentimes, we are faced with huge difficulties and trials that we begin fret and worry, feeling alone in this world. Sometimes too, we doubt that God would look favorably at us. We sometimes think that we may not be good enough for God or that He might not hear us. I really do not know what it is you might be facing but I need you to understand that God thinks about you every single second. I need you to know that He loves you so much that He sent His own son to leave His glorious kingdom and come down to this murky world to die. He did not come her to wine and dine; but He came here to die. He came here to be insulted and treated like a thief and die. Not for His own good or for the good of His glorious kingdom, but for you who is out there feeling alone and empty.
The devil likes to make us feel like we are slaves, the devil enjoys seeing us feel like God cannot answer us. The devil enjoys seeing us feel like tiny irrelevant ants which God ignores. But you need to change that silly mind set. Do you not know that you are the apple of God’s eye? Do you not even understand that since you were a little child he already prepared a room for you there in heaven with Him? Are you not aware of the multiple angels he has sent to guide and protect you?
Your prayers being heard or not is dependent on your faith in God’s power and your faith in your own power as a Christian. Never for once doubt the power of God, never doubt His faithfulness to His Children. Rather, spend time, meditating on God’s word. You might be sitting on a goldmine and be unaware. You might be living in a garden of sweet fruits and still go hungry. Read the bible every day, meditate on God’s word. Learn His word and promises by heart. Know your entitlements as a Christian and come to believe in them. Pray with faith and stop fretting. Just in case you have forgotten; “God is not human, that He should lie, not a human being, that He should change His mind. Does He speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfil?” Numbers 23: 19. This is God for you. He does what He has said. The fact that you do not get all the things you prayed for does not mean God has not heard you. The fact that things do not happen the way you want does not mean it is the end of the world. God hears you. And He would answer you.
Jesus reminded us. He said; “if you, bad as you are know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more your heavenly father, will He not give good things to those who ask?” Wipe your tears and stop fretting, God thinks about you every single day. He is with you. Just trust in Him.
Christians ought to embrace the power given to them and stop shying away from what is expected from them. Embrace Christianity fully. Stop being in the middle. You cannot serve two masters at the same time. You cannot eat your cake and have it. Learn to love God and be faithful to Him so that your prayers too can be pleasing to Him
