Ingredients for Answered Prayer
by Dr. (Mrs) Lizzy Johnson-Suleman
BIBLE READING: Exodus 37-40
TEXT : “O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come”. Psalms 65 :2.
Our Lord Jesus gave us an outline of the pattern our prayers should follow in what is called the Lord’s prayer in Matthew 6 :9 – 13.
We must draw some eternal lessons on how to get answers to our prayers by studying some of the guidelines of how to pray.
The first lesson is that, we must acknowledge the fatherhood of God, if we want to receive answers to our prayers. And to acknowledge Him as Father, we must have become His children by being saved and in cordial relationship with Him.
Jesus Christ in Matthew 15:26b referred to those not in this category as dogs. And revelation 22 :15; further says, “For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie”.
Another lesson from the Lord’s prayer is that only those who hallow, honour,or have regard for the name of the Lord can have their prayers answered (Exod. 20 :7). In other words, the name of the Lord must be hallowed, scared and reverenced in prayer, if prayer would be answered.
Also we pray earnestly for the kingdom of God to come and the will of God to be done here on earth , in this perverted generation, as if we were in Heaven. Believers who want to be effective in their prayer life must ensure that they are not influenced by the present day so-called civilization, modern ideas and unfounded fundamental human rights that are not given by our Father who art in heaven.
PRAYER: My Father! My Father! As I begin to pray now, Holy Spirit Divine, teach me how to pray effectively, in Jesus name.
