Wait On God’s Timing! – Sis. Evangeline Paul Dhinakaran
“Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayeror withheld his love from me!” (Psalm 66:20)
Let our prayers and lives reflect Jesus and His will So that all our petitions will be answered. We must believe that our prayers will surely be answered. Prayer is not about receiving what we ask for? It is God’s response to our supplications. Sometimes the answer might be “Yes” or sometimes it may be “No”, sometimes it can be ”Wait”. But definitely, He answers all our prayers. Our lack of faith can certainly hinder our prayers (James 1:6). When we do approach God solemnly, we can rest confidently on this verse “The prayer of the righteous person is powerful in what it can achieve.” (James 5:16).
Recently, I heard a testimony of a sister called Jayalakshmi. She resides just near our Prayer Tower in Chennai. She hated Jesus so much that whenever she had go to for shopping or anywhere else, she would avert her head to avoid looking at the prayer Tower. But one day, accidentally she spilt boiling oil upon here little daughter, there were boils all over her body. She was admitted in the hospital they had done all that they could do and only God could help her daughter. A nurse told her to approach Jesus Calls Prayer Tower for prayer. This sister was shocked to hear this. Yet she accepted to go there for prayers. When she went inside the Prayer Tower, the prayer warriors prayed for her daughter and they literally prayed with tears for her daughter to be healed. A great miracle occurred. The Lord not only healed the boils but He healed all the scars on her body. She shouted and glorified the Lord. Yes, we are serving a wonder-working God.
Today her daughter is an engineer. The same sister who disliked going to Prayer Tower now says that whenever she’ s got problems she goes to that Prayer Tower. So today, the Lord honors her family. The Bible says, “..your iniquities have separated you from your God; your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear” (Isaiah 59:2; Job 35:12). Acknowledge your shortcomings before God and ask him to do what he has already promised to do for you. “Praise be to God, who has not rejected my prayeror withheld his love from me!” (Psalm 66:20) . Yes! our Lord never reject our prayers. Always keep praying to our great Promiser, Provider, and Our King Jesus Christ. Surely He will bless you! Be of good cheer!
Prayer:
