Unanswered Prayers


Why are my prayers not answer ;I hear this so many times so  I would like to address it a bit. Lets see what The Bible tells us.
one reason could be for a lack of faith  ,Doubting God can truly hindered your  prayers from being answered

James 1:6-7 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. 7 For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord;

Mark 11:23  23 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.

Praying to the father in the name of Jesus

John 16:23

“And in that day you will ask Me nothing. Most assuredly, I say to you, whatever you ask the Father in My name He will give you.


Is there sin  in your life that is blocking your prayers?
Remember to repent and confess your sins  and forgive those who you need to forgive so that your prayers will be heard.

Mark 11:25-26    
25 “And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses. 26 But if you do not forgive, neither will your Father in heaven forgive your trespasses.”[a]
Pray according to the will of God
Seek God and not things, for your father in Heaven knows what you need, if you seek him first , then all these things shall be added to you.

Matthew 6:30-33 

30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.




Sometimes we just need to stand still and trust God that he will answer are prayers on time, he a God that you can take him at his word!!

Philippians 4:19 

9 And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
John 5:14-15 


 14And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us:
 15And if we know that he hear us, whatsoever we ask, we know that we have the petitions that we desired of him.

1 Peter 3:7

A Word to Husbands  
7 Husbands, likewise, dwell with them with understanding, giving honor to the wife, as to the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life, that your prayers may not be hindered.
So you see sinning can HINDER YOUR PRAYERS


LACK OF FAITH!!!
6But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
 7For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
 8A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.


The bible tells us that his people perish for lack of knowledge,I pray these scripture enlighten your heart to the will of God.
