Well, here is a good article regarding prayers, wanna share wif u guys....
LUKE 18:1 NKJ
1 Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart,
Many people give up too easily in prayer. When they don't see the answer almost immediately, they quit.
God is not pleased with this approach.
You may say, "God knows my need. Why doesn't He just give it to me, instead of playing games?"
Whether you agree with God's ways, or not: God is still in charge and makes the rules -- not you. So, it does you no good to argue or complain. Better to just line up with God insteadof fighting against His plan. Besides, in reality God's ways are perfect, it is just that we are often too immature and ignorant to understand all God is doing.
Scripture has many examples of people pressing in and receiving answers to prayer. We should never be quitters when it comes to prayer.
It is God's will to answer your prayers. He is the One who told you to pray. God actually delights in answering your prayers.
(Never forget that God loves you more than you can imagine. God loves you more than He loves Himself, and proved it by dying inyour place, so you could go free.)
"Then why are there so many delays?"
There is an enemy, the devil, who hates you and is against you receiving your answer from God.
Second, some prayers involve other people, and God does not force people to do His will, but works with them patiently so they can see and do the right thing willingly. This takes time.
Third, there are things that God is working in you while you are persevering in prayer. God's plan is for you to grow up spiritually. God wants to enlarge your faith and encourage youto develop a closer relationship with Him. If every answer always came immediately, would you really press in and spend time drawing closer to God and studying His Word?
Don't despair in prayer. Keep on praying in faith as long as you are praying according to God's Word. A delay, even a very long one, does not mean that God is saying no to your request.
SAY THIS: I will not give up in prayer.
Keep on praying for the welcoming activity....Each department can also post up any prayer requests here, or anyone can post up their prayer requests....so tat we can pray together.....Remember to use the prayer booklet.....
For this week, plz pray that God will grant everyone in the welcoming activity team the wisdom and strength to manage our time so that we will be able to finish the preparation work in time for the welcoming activity before the new sem starts.
Happy holidays n God bless!!
