God is listening as promised we must offer Him our all.Įlijah Oliver Sr. Get your petition firmly in mind, and then when you are ready, present it to God. Let the Holy Spirit settle within you and begin its work as promised from Christ Jesus. ![]() As the Holy Spirit gives you details, impressions and ideals, write them down.Īlways take your time let the spirit develop your prayer. Most important, write it down make a formal written request by writing the scriptures you have found. ![]() God the father wants you to know His will, so, while you are praying, listen! In addition, it is Christ Jesus who searches our hearts and knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God.” You must have expectation that God will reveal things from His heart to your hearts. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. Romans 8:26-27: “In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. Unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you but if I go, I will send him to you.” Let the Holy Spirit help you develop your petition in detail. John 16:7: “But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Yes, the Holy Spirit - do we remember Jesus’ promise? Then get on your knees in your war room and consult with the Holy Spirit. Find scriptures that apply to your situation and make those the foundation for your petition. Your first responsibility is to roll up your sleeves, go into your “war room” with your Holy Bible, writing paper and pen, pray to God with the pure heart that His Holy Spirit leads you to through God-breathed word. And if we know that he hears us - whatever we ask - we know that we have what we asked of him.” The apostle John writes in 1 John 5:14-15 (NIV): “This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. The Bible states God only promises to listen to prayers that are according to His will. No, unless your prayers line up with your faith in God, God will not be pleased and will turn a deaf ear to your word. First, let me warn you, I am not going to slap you on the back and assure you that God will listen to any old self-righteous, doubtful, self-centered words you say to Him. Today I want to inform you how to resolve that dilemma once and for all. If not, we would believe the words: “If I had cherished sin in my heart, the Lord would not have listened but God has surely listened and has heard my prayer.” (Psalm 66:18-19, NIV) We would boldly say “Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayer or withheld his love from me!” Yet at times, we just limp along praying the same old prayers, half-hoping those prayers are heard and half-suspecting they are not. Have you ever been in prayer and suddenly had a disturbing sensation that God simply isn’t listening? Yes, it has happened to all of us. The people no longer believe the promise God made to His people in 2 Chronicles 7:14: “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.” ![]() The vapors of evil and the wickedness of the enemy have such a strong hold on the hearts and minds of the people of this world today that they no longer understand that God is listening. ![]() Blessed be God, which hath not turned away my prayer or his mercy from me.” - Psalm 66:18-20 (KJV) “If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me: But verily God hath heard me he hath attended to the voice of my prayer. ![]()
