God is always ready to give answer to our
request whenever we called upon him in
prayer but unfortunately is not all the prayer
that God answers because it lack some virtue
that will easily attract God’s presence and
ingredient that will make it work.
Sometimes, the result to our prayer fail
because our perfidious nature which God
hates and he wants us to enjoy our Kingdom
right anyway and anytime and in every
situation.
Then, if God so desire that we enjoy our
inheritance why then is the answer to our
prayer stalls? This is what we are looking at
in this post so that you will know why you
didn’t get answer to your prayers and update
your spiritual life and make amend where
necessary.
1. Sin: Sin is a heavy barer between us
and God thereby hindering our prayer
from getting to God.
“Behold, the Lord’s hand is not
shortened, that it cannot save; neither
his ear heavy , that it cannot hear; But
your iniquities have separated between
you and your God, and your sin have
hid his face from you, that he will not
hear.” Isaiah 59:1-2.
Sin is a heavy barer to our
prayer. God’s presence is absent
where sin is present.
2. Unbelief: This is lack of confidence in
God’s promises. It is doubting God and
his words. When you doubt God’s
promises in you, it becomes a
hindrance to your prayer.
Unbelief makes us not to go far in the
kingdom race because, it is a faith
killer.
“And Jesus said unto them, Because of
your unbelief: for verily I said unto
you, if you have faith as a grain of
mustard seed, ye shall say unto this
mountain, Remove hence to yonder
place; and it shall remove: and nothing
shall be impossible unto you.” Matthew
17:20
3. Lack of faith in God: Faith is the
substance of thing hope for and the
evidence of things not yet seen. It
believes in an unseen future.
Faith is believing and trusting God in
all things. When there is no faith in our
life, we became void of divine presence.
“Then Jesus answered and said, O
faithless and perverse generation, how
long shall I be with you? How long
shall I suffer you? Bring him hither to
me.” Matthew 17:17.
“Then saith he to Thomas; reach
hither thy finger, and thrust it into my
side: and be not faithless, but
believing.”
John 20:27.
4. Improper request: God expects us to
present our requests properly. Many
people pray in a wrong way and God
hates that.
“Ye ask, and receive not, because ye
ask amiss, that ye may consume it
upon your lusts.” James 4:3. Be
careful in what you present before
God in prayer and your motive for
asking.
“And this is the confidence that we
have in him, that, if we ask any thing
according to his will, he heareth us”
1John 5:14. If your request is not
according to the will of God, he will not
hear you, he will turn his ears away
from you. Be careful.
5. Unforgiveness: This is a great
hindrance to prayer. Jesus said; “if
you forgive not men their trespasses,
neither will your heavenly Father
forgive your trespasses.” Matthew
6:15.
We must learn to forgive others their
wrong against us before God will
forgive us.
“And when ye stand praying, forgive, if
ye have aught against any; that your
Father also which is in heaven may
forgive you your trespasses.” Mark
11:25.
6. Idol in our live
Ezekiel 14:3 clearly shows the
negative effect of anything that
comes between a person and God. It
says, “Son of man, these men have
set up idols in their hearts and put
wicked stumbling blocks before their
faces. Should I let them inquire of me
at all?” God does not even want an
idol worshiper to talk to Him. On the
other hand, when we remove idols
from our lives, we become ripe for a
personal revival.
…One way to know that
something in your life is an
idol is to ask yourself, “Would I
be willing to give this thing up
if God asked me to?” Look
honestly at your career,
possessions, and family. If
there are things you wouldn’t
release to God, then they’re
blocking access to Him.
In all, if you want to get answers to
everything you request from God, then the
above things must not be found in you, you
must get rid of these menace in your life.
Remember, Jesus is the only one that can set
you free. “If the Son therefore shall make
you free, you shall be free indeed” John 8:36.

Warning: God Will Destroy Humanity Again... Our Father in heaven, the Almighty God is the Creator of heaven and earth and everything inside them whether in heaven or on earth or beneath the earth. Psalm 24:1 says,” The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein. 2 For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods. ” So, we can see from the above, that all things in the earth or in heaven or beneath the earth were created and established by Him. Genesis 1:1-2 reveals,” In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. 2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.” By implication, everything inside the earth as had already been emphasized, was created by God. Br John 1:1-3 also affirms,” In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 A...
