It Shall Be Done

Our most Gracious Heavenly Father. I come to you in the Name of Your Son Jesus Christ according to your word. Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven. And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive. But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.

Have you ever asked yourself, why your prayers are not answered? There are a few things that all must know and understand about praying to God.

1.God is the Almighty, and has the Power over all things, visible and invisible.

2. You must pray according to Gods will. Anything out side this will not be answered.

You must approach God as a Son, and not as a beggar. You have been made Kings and Priest, by Jesus, before God. For he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.

Heb 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

We have boldness or should I say, Liberty, to enter into the Holy of Holies, by the Blood of Jesus Christ. Here we have authority to enter into direct conversation, with God the Father. He see us clothed in His righteousness, and we are recognized by the sprinkling of the Blood of His Son, Jesus.

When we pray according to Gods will, He hears and answers, when we pray outside the will of God, He rejects our supplication and we are then chastised. What is Gods will, according to your prayers? When we pray for items, titles, finances and healings that will produce glory and honor for us directly, this is outside the will of God, and these types of prayers will not be answered. You must remember that we are to Glorify God in all things, and not to bring blame for anything upon the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Will God answer a prayer for, items, titles, finances and healings? Yes. But the heart will be checked closely by God, to find the hidden agenda, if any, that the person has.

When we pray, we must pray with, Hope, Faith, Confidence and Trust, in the word of God. God hears prayers that include His word. For He recognizes His word and will accomplish it. For it is written that, there is one immutable thing, God Cannot Lie.

Many prayers are not answered because of doubt. We can trust, the governments, the President, Kings, United Nations and even the Banking Systems, then why cannot we trust something that is true and sure, The Word and promises of God and His Christ?

Jesus said, And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
There are a number of key phrases in these scriptures, that lead us into answered prayers

1.Asking so that, The Father may be glorified in the Son.

2. That, my words abide in you. Knowing what the word of God says about each and every situation. Knowing that Gods word is instilled within not only your mind but within your heart. We must pray with an open heart, and ask in the Name of Jesus. Asking in any other name will only go as high as the ceiling, and no further.

3. whatsoever ye shall ask in my name. We off times limit the power of God and His word. We try to put a limit on what God can, or even will, give to those that are faithful to the truth. If God were only to allow certain things to be given to His Children, then these words of Christ would be a lie.

4. in my name. Our faith is based on Jesus,because of His resurrection from the dead. We see many instances in scripture where men tried to do things in the name of Jesus, but were powerless. Why? Because they were only using His name without having the faith in His name.
Act 19:13 Then certain of the vagabond Jews, exorcists, took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits the name of the Lord Jesus, saying, We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth.

We cannot be for God and for Satan. We must choose.

Isa 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Isa 46:9-10; Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me,
Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure:

Who among us has made Gods word void of truth, void of being accomplished. We see the truth in our lives and we must hold on to our faith, not only in God and Christ, but also of His words. Ask and it shall be given, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened up to you. Where there is doubt or grumbling, there will be no answered prayer. This is faith; Psa 6:9 The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.
the LORD will receive my prayer. Praying by The word of God; Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were. But as for me, my prayer is unto thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of thy mercy hear me, in the truth of thy salvation. Bow down thine ear, O LORD, hear me: for I am poor and needy.

Psa 102:16-18; When the LORD shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.
He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.
This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the LORD.
Destitute; Destitute
Literally, set from or away.]

1. Not having or possessing; wanting; as destitute of virtue, or of peity; destitute of food and clothing. It differs from deprived, as it does not necessarily imply previous possession.
2. Needy; abject; comfortless; friendless.
He will regard the prayer of the destitute. Psa 102.
One who is without friends or comfort.

Remember, In the Name of Jesus and having Faith in His name and it, Shall be Done. ars
