With all my heart I believe God answers every prayer in perfect ways.

I have heard we can take a look at the spot in the Bible where an angel talked of being in some sort of battle so it took a while to get help for someone (OT) maybe that is one reason why we don't see answers right away...... but

Isn't it true that sometimes we don't see answers to prayer for many other reasons like ---

The timing is off, someone else's will is involved, our motives may be off, the thing we are asking for may not be part of God's plan and way of doing things, and things beyond our understanding.

I think the most important thing we can do when it looks as though God is not answering our prayers is for us to continue to trust Him.

Faith is still the substance of things hoped for and the conviction of things not yet seen.

Without faith it's impossible to please God.

We need to keep in HIS Word, keep in fellowship, and to keep believing that God knows what HE is doing and He won't fail us or forsake us. We need to keep the faith even when all else looks or feels bleak.

Maybe that's why people are told to beware of being moved by our emotions &/or feelings.

I have needed some oral surgery for some time; over a year. Getting it done at the end of the month, but meanwhile feel unwell.

I am trusting the Lord to take care of me because I have been prayed over and prayed for this for the whole time; I have to trust He is doing what needs to be done.

I don't know if this is 3 in a row or not... there may be exceptions under these circumstances - I just got time to review what was being typed when I was away last night.
