The Equation Prayer

by Vonette Bright

Now this is the confidence that we have in Him, that if we ask anything
according to His will, He hears us.” 1 John 5:14

As a young man, Mike used to think that if he just kept praying,
God would give him exactly what he wanted.
But he learned how self-centered that attitude is… not God-centered.

Friend, prayer is not an equation of – you pray and God acts.
The bible says: “that if we ask (God) anything… according to His will… He hears us.”
Mike says that when he prays now, God’s plan will be done and in God’s timing…
and it will be in Mike’s best interest.

So whether your prayer is for a loved one to come to Christ or a new job,
go to God with that prayer.
Then look for God’s answer of yes, no, wait, or a totally unexpected solution!
