http://escapetoreality.org/2011/03/13/dealing-with-unanswered-prayer/ We need to rest in Jesus’ promise that whatever we ask in His name we shall receive (Jn 14:13, 16:24). “Ask me,” says Jesus, “and I will do it” (Jn 14:14). What is the key to doing the works and greater works of Jesus? It is simple faith in Jesus Christ (Jn 14:12). But sometimes we pray and there is no immediate manifestation. The sickness lingers. Does that mean God said no? Not according to Matthew 21:22 and John 16:24. Let God be true and every man a liar! God’s faithfulness is the one constant in the equation. He is the Rock on which we stand. Traditional: Sometimes the answer is no Biblical: God is faithful! Some people will tell you that God hasn’t answered your prayers because you are not doing enough works. They’ll say you’re out of fellowship with Him or you haven’t pounded the gates of heaven or you haven’t confessed all of your sins. Others will try and manage your expectations with doctrine based on their experience rather than His word. Listen to these sorts of people and I guarantee it’ll neutralize your faith. A Better Way to Pray:
“When I minister healing to someone, I’ll
pray for them two, three, four, or more times. I don’t care! I’m willing
to pray for them until I rub all the hair off of their head! However,
I’m not going back to God and saying, ‘Father, it didn’t work the first
time. Let it work now, please!’ No! I believe it happened because God is
faithful. He gave, but something’s wrong with our receiver. So I work
on it. If the devil withstands one dose of the Holy Spirit, I’ll shoot
him again! Just like Jesus did with the blind man of Bethsaida (Mark
8:22-26), I pray until I see the answer manifest. You need to get this
attitude that God is faithful and He’s already met your need before you
ever had it.” (p.125)
Understand that we’re not fighting to get the victory; we’re fighting to enforce
the victory that Christ has already won. Satan and sickness were
disarmed at the cross (Col 2:15). That’s why we’re called to stand
rather than advance (Eph 6:13). We’re not taking ground, we’re holding
ground that’s already ours through Christ. So stand firm and declare
God’s word over your circumstances. Your tongue holds the power of life
and death (Pro 18:21), so proclaim life and grace and health and freedom
over your situation.
Faith is for moving mountains. Faith is for healing the sick, raising
the dead and otherwise demonstrating the gospel. To be specific, faith
is for doing the works and greater works of Jesus:
“The person who trusts me will not only do
what I’m doing but even greater things, because I, on my way to the
Father, am giving you the same work to do that I’ve been doing. You can
count on it.” (Jn 14:12, MSG)
