EXPECT ANSWERS
(You Have A Right To Be Heard)
A double-minded man is unstable in all his ways.
“Everyone who asks, receives; all who seek, find; and the door is opened to everyone who knocks.”
LET’S TALK
The reason many folks wouldn’t expect answers to their prayer is their consciousness of sin. They presume God is mad at them for something they may have done wrong. Such people aren’t well-grounded in the teaching of righteousness. The way out of the quagmire is for them to get more acquainted with God’s Word on righteousness. Righteousness is the nature of God within you that gives you the right to stand before Him without any sense of guilt.
And so, as one who bears the divine life of God, you have a right to be heard in Heaven whenever you pray. And if you know that you’re heard, then you can always expect answers. 1John 5:14-15 (AMP) says, “And this is the confidence (the assurance, the privilege of boldness) which we have in Him: [we are sure] that if we ask anything (make any request) according to His will (in agreement with His own plan), He listens to and hears us. And if (since) we [positively] know that He listens to us in whatever we ask, we also know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted us as our present possessions] the requests made of Him.”
Never find yourself at a point where you’re wondering whether or not God would hear your prayers. He always hears and always answers you. What you need to do on your part is grow in your knowledge of His Word. Renew your mind with it and strengthen your faith. When you become fully aware of who you are through His Word, you’ll confidently pray and expect answers.

RELATE: Prayer
Dear Father, I open my heart to your Word; for the entrance of your Word gives light and understanding. I thank you for building me up in righteousness through your Word, giving me the opportunity to ask according to your will, and the confidence that you’ll grant my request, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
