Things are brought to pass only as man
prays, and without his prayer, some things will not occur.

Timothy 2:1-4 says
“I
urge, then, first of all, that petitions, prayers, intercession and
thanksgiving be made for all people - for kings and all those in
authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness
and holiness.
This
is good, and pleases God our Savior,
who
wants all people to be saved and to come to a knowledge of the
truth.”
Your
prayers may go unanswered unless the following 5 keys are met.
HERE ARE YOUR 5 KEYS TO ANSWERED
PRAYER
1.
MAKE YOUR
PRAYERS TO GOD THE FATHER
IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST.
John
14:13 says “And
I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be
glorified in the Son.”
John 15:16 says
“You
did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you
might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever
you ask in my name the Father will give you.”
John 16:23 says
“In
that day you will no longer ask me anything. Very truly I tell you,
my Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.”
2. YOUR PRAYERS MUST BE MADE
IN KEEPING WITH GOD’S WILL.
1
John 5:14-15 says
“This
is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask
anything according to His will, He hears us. And if we know that He
hears us - we know that we have what we asked of Him.”
3. YOU MUST PRAY IN FAITH.
Hebrews
11:6 says
“And
without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who
comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those
who earnestly seek Him.”
4. YOU MUST HAVE NO UNFORGIVENESS
IN YOUR HEART.
Matthew
6:12-15 says
“Forgive
us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not
into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. For if you
forgive men when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also
forgive you. But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father
will not forgive your sins.”
5. YOU MUST HAVE CONFESSED
AND RENOUNCED YOUR SIN.
Isaiah
59:1-2 says
“Surely
the arm of the Lord is not too short to save, nor His ear too dull to
hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; your
sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear.”
Luke
13:5 says
“I tell you, no! But unless you repent,
you too will all perish.”
2
Corinthians 7:10 says
“Godly
sorrow brings repentance
that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow
brings death.”
Sometimes,
all it takes is just one prayer to change everything. When you don't
know what to do, PRAY!
