Now, there's a bold promise. I am about to tell you how you can rest assured on your blessed assurance that God hears your prayers and ANSWERS them!
This is maybe the most important bit of information you are going to read today. If you believe God; if you've accepted His gift of salvation and pledged to follow hard after Jesus all the days of your life; then you, my friend, have been given a powerful privilege!
God not only invites you to step into His throne room and discuss your concerns with Him. He implores you to come boldly!
"Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace; that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need." Hebrews 4:16 NKJV
God doesn't invite you to come, just to shoot the breeze! He invites you to come to Him, so that you may get something from Him! (Notice the word, "obtain" and "find" in Hebrews 4:16.)
Here are 3 absolute truths (truths that are factual whether or not you choose to believe them) that prove God will answer your prayers.
Scripture tells us that God cannot lie, nor can He break a promise.
"So God has given both his promise and his oath. These two things are unchangeable because it is impossible for God to lie. Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us." Hebrews 6:18 NLT
Scripture (God's Word) also tells us that when we pray, God answers us.
"Call on Me, and I will answer you and tell you great and mighty things you do not know." Jeremiah 33:3
Scripture also tells us that when we pray, God gives us what we ask for!
"And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. And since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for."
