Confidence and Compassion in Prayer
1 John 5:14-15 “Now this is the confidence that we have in Him that if we ask anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us, whatever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we have asked of Him.”
Kingdom Dynamics NKJV Bible
Prayer Is Agreeing with God’s Will.
Immature faith tries to manipulate God. It looks for spiritual shortcuts and formulas guaranteed to produce an answer to any request. It regards prayer as a weapon we use to force God to make good His promises. But true prayer is not a human effort at persuading God or forcing our will on Him. True prayer is founded upon finding and coming into agreement with God’s will; then we stand in faith, confident that God hears us and that what we ask for is already ours.
To pray with authority and receive answers to your prayers, make sure you ask according to the will of God. If you do not know his will, ask him. (James 1:5)
