You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions. -James 4:3One way to receive a definite answer to prayer is to align our prayers with God’s will. In Luke 10, verse 2, Jesus tells his disciples,
“The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”You would think that God would answer the prayers that Jesus tells us to pray. In fact, if you would pray that prayer and then obediently respond to your own prayer by going out into the harvest, then God would definitely answer that prayer.
Are you willing to pray? Are you willing to go out into the harvest? Do you want answered prayer?
