Ask in faith

"And it shall come to pass, that before they call, I will answer; and while they are yet speaking, I will hear."     

Isaiah 65:24

From our opening scripture, the Bible lets us know that before we call He answers and while we are yet speaking, He hears us. God does not hear us because of much speaking. In other words, God does not hear us just because we prayed again and again. He hears us the moment we pray in faith.

George Muller was traveling in a ship one time and there was mist in the sea and they could not see their way. So, when he came out and the Captain told him about it, he asked the Captain to give him a moment. He went on his knees and prayed, telling the mist to shift. When he was through praying, he went back and told the Captain that the mist would shift. The mist shifted just as he said and the sea was clear again.

Come to this knowledge that you can change anything. Know that whatever comes against you is for the glory of God and you will surely overcome. When you face challenges with such an attitude, your attitude will be different in the midst of challenges.

For instance, when my wife was pregnant with our first child, the doctor said there was a fibroid disturbing the child. The average couple on hearing that would have said, "okay let us terminate the pregnancy." No, it was not so with us, we knew the blessing was on us because the Bible says in Deuteronomy 28:4, "Blessed shall be the fruit of thy body …" My wife carried the baby full term and our first child was born safely inspite of the initial testimony of the doctor because we knew the Word of God.

Therefore, when you ask the Lord in faith for anything, know that it will surely come to pass to the glory of God.

Confession

In the Name of Jesus, I declare that I am blessed in the city, I am blessed in the field. All my children are blessed. My business is blessed, my bank account is blessed. I am blessed in my coming in and I am blessed in my going out. All those that rise up against me will fall for my sake. My job and all that concern me are blessed. I am walking in righteousness and dominion. I am blessed with all good things. I shall never be barren. I bring forth fruit in and out of season. The windows of heaven are open unto me and I shall lend to nations and shall not borrow. The Lord has made me the head and not the tail. I shall be above only and not be beneath. Amen.
