Many times in the past I have made a very reasonable request to God, asking him for a favor. I don’t ask for anything ridiculous: not a Lamborghini, not a million dollars, not a private island in the Caribbean. The favor I ask God for is a small thing for him to help me with, and if God would have just a little bit of compassion and grant my request my life would be changed forever for the better. The impact of God helping me with this one issue, which would require very little effort on his part, would be so profound that I would become like a new person, and my life would improve exponentially.

Unfortunately, God has always rejected my very reasonable request in the past. I’ve asked God many times to help me with this issue, but he never does. I’ve asked again and again, but no help ever came.

I decided I would make the same prayer request tonight. If this issue doesn’t get resolved, my life and purpose in life will become an abysmal failure. So recently today I’ve been obsessing about being rejected. I continually feel angry over the prospect of God showing no compassion and rejecting me again. I wish the anger would go away and I could feel hopeful that God would have compassion, but I’ve been rejected by him so many times in the past that it’s hard not to feel despair.

I would like others to pray for me and ask God to grant my request that I ask him tonight. I really really need God to grant this prayer request, otherwise my life and purpose in life will turn out to be an abysmal failure.

Father I pray that You will work in such a way that Your ways are actually much better for Rev life than their ways, Isaiah 55:8-9. I pray that You would work to open their eyes that their evaluation of their life and it's future, and Your evaluation of it is much different, and Your way, if followed, will be much better than their way. May they realize that You are God, perfect in all Your ways; and like the rest of us, we are not perfect, and could never think of a better way for our life than the way that You would have. May they come to understand and accept the reason their prayer hasn't been answered the way they would like it to be. Praying "Your best" for them. Amen.

"Unfortunately, God has always rejected my very reasonable request in the past. " <--this is a lie from the enemy. Did you know a woman came to Christ asked for her kids to sit on Christs left and right. What always still gets to me is...He never said no. All He said was woman you don't know what your asking for. Its not mine to give buy my Father.

See the word says.. if we KNOW He hears us then we know we have the petitions/prayers we asked for. Gods WILL what is it? So many ask this all the time. Its HIS WORD! And if we doubt let not that man think he will get anything from God.

I just said in another post God told Sarah.. that laughed within her self..He said.. what is to hard for the lord?. Did not He say if you delight your self in the lord He WILL give you the desires of your heart. Did He not say what ever you ask the Father in my name He will do it. What ever you desire when you pray believe you receive it and you shall have it. Did He not say in James "Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts."

He always hears the righteous..always. He does not hear the wicked. You are the righteous. So.. the word says.. if we KNOW He hears us then we KNOW we have the petitions we asked for. To many times was ask for things that do not go inline with the word. Or we ask with no faith.

So KNOW He is for you... find what His word says about what you are asking for. You then as He said remind Him of what His word says. His WORD has to return back to Him doing exactly what He said. It can never return to Him void. In the mists of fear.. one should say "NO.. God has not given me the spirit of fear but of power and love and a sound mind". Not moved by what we see hear or FEEL!

To many times we put a TIME limit on this. If you KNOW He hears you and your prayer goes in line with His word.. He will ALWAYS SAY YES!

I'm glad if you got your prayer answered. But I pray for you to really know the Lord. When you accuse Him of not being compassionate, and not being fair to you in what you think are your reasonable requests, you are not actually praying to Him at all. He is the Father of Mercies to us. His compassions never fail.

I pray you study the Word and pray and find out Who He really is, and what He wants from you.

I'm sorry for my misrepresentation of God's nature. It's just that I felt so much distress over what was happening to me that I made irrational comments.

That's so understandable and common. When we are very stressed out we can get mad at the Lord sometimes and doubt His goodness. Heck I've gotten mad at Him in years past just because I didn't get some things I wanted - though in retrospect I see things differently.
