"Ah Lord God! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:" -Jeremiah 32:17
Nothing is hard for the Lord. And if so, then it is given that God is capable of doing and will provide for us all in times of trouble and of want.
There are 2 things we need to know why there are times we find it hard, ...living in this world after knowing what our God is capable of doing.
One. The intent of the heart is questionable.
What is our intention? Does it benefit others? Is it really for the good?
Many of our prayers are not being answered mainly because it will only bring us to our ruin. God doesn't allow all the things we pray for knowing it will only lead us to our destruction. Remember in everything, God meant it for good.
Know that God knows and sees what is in our hearts.
Two. Is your faith enough?
If things doesn't seem to go our way and you feel a certain limitation of God's moving in our lives, i tell you its not God rather its about our faith.
All things are possible to those who will believe. We limit God's involvement in our lives because of our limited faith. Things doesn't seem to go in our favour.
The question will then be about our faith in Him. Do we really sincerely trust Him?
Faith enables God to intervene in our lives.
Yes nothing is hard for the Lord but in everything it is His will be done not ours. Only if He allows it. And if He allows it or not, it is well.
Four things you need to do if it seems God doesn't answer you:
One. Reflect on your prayer. See if there are hindrances such as sin in your heart.
Two. Pray without ceasing.
Three. Reading the Word of God will increase your faith.
Four. Wait patiently for Him and know that His Will be done not yours.
To God be the glory!
