| He Will Answer |
|
| ¡°But when he asks, he must believe and not doubt.¡± ( James 1:6 , NIV ) |
|
Twin distortions tend to impair prayer life.
The ¡°scientific¡± mind does not really expect answers to prayer. James says, ¡°Pray expecting.¡± On the other hand the ¡°super-spiritual¡± person may expect such sensational answers that he fails to see the down-to-earth genuine answers that come.
For example, God promises ¡°wisdom¡± as an answer to prayer. But how does it come? In a blinding flash of fire and smoke, miraculously? Maybe. But more than likely, God will lead the ¡°seeker of wisdom¡± through some tough and painful ordinary experiences which produce wisdom. If you ask for wisdom, you may get trials. And while the trials don¡¯t look like it, they may indeed be the indirect answers to the prayer for wisdom.
Let us pray in faith nothing doubting.
God answers sharp and sudden on some prayers,
And thrusts the thing we have prayed for in our face,
A gauntlet with a gift in it. |

Lord, rescue us from being either too logical or too sensational. Teach us to pray in faith. We know that You will answer, though Your answers may be veiled in ordinary circumstances. Thank You. In Jesus¡¯ name. Amen. - LYNN ANDERSON, Abilene, Texas |
