Good morning my dear friends in Christ!

"Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them." - Mark 11:24

Why bother to ask if we don’t believe God can do what we ask? The key to answered prayer is believing. Have you ever prayed in faith believing and then watched as God answered your prayer? Remember, you can’t get what you don’t ask for and have faith in God to give. “He calleth His own sheep by name.” Can anyone question that God answers prayer?

A Russian businessman went broke. Despondent and in much despair, he went for a walk in the woods. Sitting down to rest, he itemized all his debts he could remember. In disgust, he wrote at the bottom of the list, “Who could pay all these debts?” The Emperor Nichols was walking through the woods and found the businessman leaning against a tree asleep.

Yes, God wants to be BELIEVED. That is why He called Abraham His "friend". It is because Abraham BELIEVED Him.

And as surely as the sun will rise each morning (although not always seen) God WILL give us whatever it is we ask for, if it is according to His will. For if it is according to His will, it will not be a'miss.

"Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts." ~Jam 4:3

Thank you for this thought-provoking study and meditation, brother. A very blessed morning to you on this cool-ish Tuesday morning. :)
