Things That Delay Our Prayers
Posted :Saturday 21st September 2024
Lateness:
God will not force you with time. We have respect for human time but when it comes to Gods house, we are always late. We have made God to be familiar with us. Lateness will delay your prayers.
Gods relevance and reverence
Malachi 1:5
And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, The LORD will be magnified from the border of Israel.
Malachi 1:6
A son honoureth [his] father, and a servant his master: if then I [be] a father, where [is] mine honour? and if I [be] a master, where [is] my fear? saith the LORD of hosts unto you, O priests, that despise my name. And ye say, Wherein have we despised thy name?
If you cannot give reverence God then dont call anyone Reverend. Learn to honour God before you can honour the vessel he is using.
Until we know how God is important to us, we cannot expect anything from him. We dont know how to honour God because we men more than the creator himself.
When you dont know the purpose or reason why you go to church or any prayer platfor
You must have a purpose or a heart desire for going to church. If you know God for yourself, you will see the purpose or importance of going to church. We must stop playing in the house of God and pray.
Our corrupt behaviors
How can you attend church and be gossiping? We have to know that God is ever present wherever we find ourselves. We should not be looking up to heaven only for God to descend before we honor him.
When our presence is not important to God
God cannot answer our prayers when we have bitter and unforgiving hearts. Ephesians 4:32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christs sake hath forgiven you. Your heart must contain good things.
Avoid competition in the house of God
We are not complete in Christ Jesus if we come to church to compete with each other. The church has moved from completion to competition
Anyone praying to God and cannot Love will never receive answers to your prayers
1John 3:17 But whoso hath this worlds good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels [of compassion] from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him? 1John 3:18 My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.
Hebrews 12:12 Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees; The doctrines in our various churches is bringing division amongst us. We cannot claim to love God and abhor hatred or bitterness in our heart.
God bless you abundantly and stay strong in Jesus Christ name Amen!
