“The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.” (James 5:16)
We struggle with unanswered prayers, not because God isn’t giving, but because doubt blocks reception. God delights in the prayers of His people, yet faith is the bridge that connects our petitions to His promises. The Israelites were called God’s people because of His covenant with Abraham, yet their relationship with Him was based on knowledge (Exodus 19:5-6). In Christ, we no longer wait for the promises, we step into their fulfillment (1 Peter 2:9).
Faith is built by conviction and conviction built through the word of God (2 Timothy 3:16). What you believe shapes how you act. If you struggle to pray, it’s not a discipline issue, it’s a belief issue.
“Is anyone among you afflicted? Let him pray.” (James 5:13) The moment you pray, release your burdens, knowing God hears and answers because YOUR PRAYERS HAS GREAT POWER AND PRODUCES WONDERFUL RESULTS
