Timing is Everything

Prayer is one of the greatest benefits God has given to us. In Philippians 4:6 we are told "let your requests be made to God".

When we pray and don't receive an answer, are we to stop praying? No! We should never stop praying. After all, at a time like this, the most important thing we can do, is to continue in our communion with our Heavenly Father.

Also, this would be a time when we would be most vulnerable to Satan's tempting. Satan has many tricks, and one is his ability to place obstacles of doubt in our minds. He will lure us with obstacles of diversion. He will try to convince us that God is not listening and doesn't care.

"Submit, therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you" James 4:7. Believe in God, for his answers and His timing is everything.
