God answers prayers

I believe God answers all prayers. Just sometimes the answer is no. Or sometimes he makes us wait. Sometimes I think we pray for the wrong things or for the wrong reasons. I try to ask God for his will to be done. Even though I sometimes wish it was my will being done I logically know better.

I'm going through a few rough spots, and I've been praying so much. I believe that God answers all prayers, even if things don't go the way that we want them to..

Yes my friend I believe God answers all prayers , I have always prayed but never more than I have done this year , I prayed for him to help my son through his illness and to give my hubby the strength to get through 2 bypass ops he answered them both , I am now hoping he hears me and helps me to get through something health wise in 2 weeks time ( tests) yes I do believe he helps us when he hears us and gives us the strength to cope xx

I already know that. I am living proof and He answers every prayer so I always remember "Let go and Let God". I do that with all my problems and He has never let me down. I also pray to Him to excuse me for being impatient when I ask him again about the same thing. He does answer in his own time and always points the way for me to take care of any problems.

I have learned this lession - of course there are also times that you need to 'shut up and listen' for His answer also. Many times people get so caught up in everyday 'stuff' they don't hear His answer.

you are correct my friend however many folks just look on God as a big santa in the sky ,in other words if i dont get all i want he dostn care this is the wrong attitude God knows what is best for us and he always does what is best for us that means it isnt always just what we want !

No God doesn't answer and does not listen to all prayers, proverbs 28:9 says,"He that his turninig his ear away from the law,even his prayer is something detestable". So a persons conduct can hinder his or her prayer so as not to be heard by God. Thanks

God does answer prayers....sometimes though, it's NOT the answer we were praying for! I am a Christian and I know first had how hard and how much it hurts with seems as an unanswered prayer, (God does answer them, but in HIS time)....or we may not want to accept the aswer He gives us. I say this again, I know this first hand! I have thought that with out a doubt that 'this thing' would happen...and when it didn't, my husband and I were torn with pain....but, the thing is, you still have to have Faith and beleive in Him that He DOES love you! You also have to remember that we have "free will" and there are things that happened to us that He NEVER wanted for us! But, because we think we know what's best, we do what we want (like a stubborn 2 year old child) Many times, He does try and stop us from making this mistake, but we still keep trying and finally, He allows us to do what we want....You know, like when you keep telling your child "No! Do no do that, that will hurt you! and you won't like the outcome" But, finally you put your hands up and say, "okay, if that's what you want but, we'll don't you know, I will say told you so!" So, God does know the outcome of our actions, He may even try to stop us....warn us...but He loves us so much that we can say NO to Him, We have 'free will' to do it....No one can 'grow new limbs' and that is horrible, truly it is....but if you beleive in Him, trust in Him in ALL times!!!! God can use you...you can make a difference for someone else. He knows how strong you are right now, He is calling you to lean on HIM!!! Go to Him and trust Him...by the way, we are human and He knows that we have doubt, fear, anger, pain, etc.....those emotions are also things He created and it's okay to use them...just don't let them over take you.....God Bless you!

I KNOW He answers prayers. For a fact I know this. He does not always say yes, sometimes it is a no, but for our own good. God is still answering prayers, He is still in the healing business, and YES He is still on the throne. I believe this with all my heart.

Oh I definately believe that God answers prayers. Sometimes He doesn't answer them the way that we want or think He should. We have to remember that God knows what is best for us. We don't. We have to trust God...even when things seem so crazy and chaotic. God is in control always. He does allow bad things to happen sometimes and He has a reason for that. He wants us to know how much we need Him. He wants us to learn to trust Him and to know how faithful He really is. He wants us to grow in our faith and our love for Him. God is good...All the time! God bless!

I agree. god does answer every answer, he says no sometimes, but he alsways has a reason why. he has a plan for all of us.

God answers all prayers, but answers in a way that is appropriate for the situation and your own personal needs. Therefore, the answer you have prayed for may not be the one you get, but in the big picture it is probably for the best any way as God has other plans for you.

There's not much else I can say about this as you other Christians out there have done a good job. However, it's not always easy when God says no or makes you wait. I've had money problems since I was a kid & now I'm an adult my money troubles aren't my fault. I've been quite ill & not been able to work for long enough between my first illness & my second illness to save any money for bad times. Is this God's fault? No. It's down to flaws in the British benefit system (Christians aren't immune). You see God trusts governments with money, but they don't always do their jobs properly. Having prayed about money, both for myself & the charity I'm setting up, the only "contructive" answers have been for the charity & on a bad day I can't help wondering if God will only look after everybody else except me. But, God is making me wait for some unknown reason. This is hard, but He's big enough to let you tell Him how you feel about it. He doesn't ban the subject when you pray, He still listens to everything you say. But you can't manipulate God, so there's no point even trying. Just be honest with Him, He can take it. If He made the whole universe, one honest opinion isn't gonna put Him off. In anycase, He want you to share how you're feeling with Him. Even if He can't yet give you what you want, He still cares about you. Plus there may be a reason He can't answer you're prayer yet. Maybe he know you're not ready yet or maybe He's saying no cos it's not in you rbest interests. Remember this: God cares, whether He's given you what you want, won't give you what you want, or is making you wait. But He still wants to help & He certainly won't shut you out.

Yes, God answeres prayers. I am a firm believer in prayer. I am a firm believer that praying to God does bring about results, but not without works from us. Not only should we ask for "stuff" while we pray, but we also should say "Thank You God for all there is, that is in my life" My daughter and I are living witnesses to this fact. I'm not a religious person, more spiritual than anything, but I do know that God/Jesus/Holy Spirit does listen to all that pray and he answers/responds to prayers. Just my two cents, shirl in dc

I agree..GOd always answers our prayers..sometimes His answer may not be our answer but..it's always the right answer for the situations or requests we present Him with;)+

I do believe that God has a plan for all of us and will not give us more than we can handle. There are times we may not agree with people saying prayers are not answered, but because God has a plan for us, Yes our prayers are always answered just not always the way we'd like it. I believe we should also be careful what we pray for because it may be answered and you decide it wasn't what you really wanted. I've had a lot of people pray for me the past couple months and I definately felt the power of prayer this time more than ever before in my life.

I also believe that one answer we get is:*Not right now* and there are reasons for that as well.

My mother used to tell me that God had four answers to prayer: yes, no, wait and "Are you crazy?" There is one prayer He always answers yes to and that's "Thy will be done."

Yes, God answers all prayers. He may not answer in the way I want, but He knows what's best and He can see farthur down the road than I can. Sometimes, when I look back or when something happens in my life, I can see why He answered in the ways He did even if it was no. For instance, two years ago, my husband and I tried to buy a house, but were unable to, a year later we ended up moving, out of state, and amazingly were able to buy a home at that time, without any problems at all.

Sometimes we just have to wait (Lord knows how many times my kids ask something and I tell them to wait for an answer). Wehardly call god ,god will listen to us and answer the prayer. God give us what do we want.Try your self.
