You know, I saw this article online the other day... and I feel it REALLY answered my prayers of why my prayers aren't being answered yet! The reason why: It's not the prayer itself, it's your FAITH. You can ask God ANYTHING as long as you have faith. Like you know how people are saying "It's not God's Will for this, or 'if it is in thy will'"? DO NOT SAY OR WORRY ABOUT THAT ANYMORE BECAUSE THE ANSWER WAS IN THAT ARTICLE: GOD'S WILL IS GOD'S WORD AND THAT ANYTHING THAT YOU DREAM OR DESIRE WILL HAPPEN IN THE NAME OF JESUS! Here's the article if you so think that what I just said is unbelievable: trust me, it's the only way for it to be believable:

THAT ARTICLE IS THE ANSWER TO ALL QUESTIONS ABOUT PRAYERS! Thanks to this article, I know now there is NO such thing as 'unanswered prayers' OR a prayer that 'may or may not be in God's Will/Plan'.

A couple days ago, I received a message on Facebook from my ex-boyfriend saying that he does not want to have a relationship with me ever again, there is no we, he will never be my knight in shining armor, it's over, we're NEVER going to date ever again, etc. I was indeed hurt... that I think God just said NO to the prayer I've been asking for 5 months... I almost gave up... gave up completely on the man I wanted (and still want) to marry... He (my ex) even thought it was selfish for me to pray for him and I to date again and it was 'my will vs. his will'. I thought I had lost all hope... but I had talked to my dad prior to it... He said 'the reason why this is happening is because I do not have any faith.' I was like 'Dad, I just told you what he told me. He doesn't want anything to do with me anymore. We have no future at all... and yet I still want that future with him no matter what!' Then he told me 'Mel, you still want to be with him. Who are you going to believe in words: his (ex) words or HIS (God/Jesus Christ) Words? Read HIS word, not his (ex) word... don't believe in man, but believe in your God.' I still was not really sure how to go about this... but I did what dad told me... I started reading the bible again. And Guess what. It hit me like a ton of bricks. Look what it says, here. It was mentioned MANY times. Guess where I found it at. In Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. All have the same stories and teachings but taught differently but Jesus did say one thing that REALLY hit it home here for me: "Therefore I say unto you, Whatever things you desire, when you pray, believe that ye receive them, and you shall have them." [Mk:11:24]

Through Jesus, God said he WILL give us our desires. WHATEVER WE DESIRE AND WANT AND/OR NEED, HE SHALL GRANT THEM TO US! It may not be right now because He is preparing us for us to HAVE IT! ...I cannot say anymore because I have already said too much. That article right there is the answer to everything, and it IS God's Word that HAD to be inspired to write that article! And if you are thinking whether or not it is 'God's Will' for you to have whatever you want and ask for... Guess what? EVERYTHING YOU ASK FOR IS GOD'S WILL! BECAUSE GOD'S WORD IS HIS WILL AND SINCE HE SAYS WE WILL HAVE IT, WE WILL. It doesn't say He won't grant your request because of what you are praying for. If you are right with God... and know God's Word... and your FAITH is that of Jesus Christ whose faith was abundant, then it WILL (not MIGHT OR MAY OR IF HE CHOOSES TO DO SO) happen! ...Just read that article, but God just gave me the answer to all of my prayers of why I was praying for these prayers right there in one simple blow! God Bless!
