UN-ANSWERED PRAYER

Unanswered prayer,   the proven Antidote.

 Am I grateful enough?  That sounded fair

Am I an ingrate? That sounded harsh

Am I not the source of my problem? That sounded pointblank.

 How grateful are you?

How praiseful are you?

If you are not grateful, you can not be praiseful.

Your level of gratefulness determines your level of praise.

How thankful are you?

How joyful are you?

If you are not thankful, you can not be joyful.

The level of your thankfulness determines the level of your joy

How Godly are you?

How graceful are you?

If you are not Godly, you can not be full of grace.

Your level of Godliness determines your level of grace.

To be grateful is to be thankful, praiseful, graceful and to be full of God.

To be thankful for little gift is an express access to great gift.

God is good. God loves your gratitude and worship all the time. If you are of God, you will do exactly what he loves, what come may. And the more you understand this mystery, the more you will enjoy His grace.  Even though the obstacles before you seem insurmountable and appear so real, grace will gracefully gives you a graceful swagger beyond understanding.

Ask and you shall receive. It is a law. In science, laws are proven statements of fact that are true with or without a condition.

When you receive anything, be truly thankful.

Don’t expect that your request is going to be moderated and adjusted up to a bigger one though it seldom happens.

Most often than not, from experience, it can only be moderated down.

Unfortunately again, there can be a delay for some reasons well known to the giver. And by the time you will have it, it is more like a belated or an outdated blessing. Therefore instead of being grateful and being very grateful, you are already believing God for the bigger one, such that even your thanks, if at all, is not full.

For example, someone asked sometimes that even if it is just a two doors car I will be happy. After a while, he got it miraculously. But , he began to make a statement that never again in his live will he ask for small thing like that again. He regretted not to have asked for jeep or other big cars.  Today this man can only boast of a higher rated cars and nothing more.

Another good example is someone who asked for a beetle car. After a while, he also got it. He was very very happy and grateful boasting about his new car around.  He has got exactly what he desired and loves to have. His friend who had a better car were making jest of him for being proud of having a beetle car at such a time. However, he stood his ground to be sincerely grateful to God for that blessing. Today, this same man is having a private jet only for himself and the fleet of great cars is uncountable.

 The two men like anyone reading this today have a great destiny which was unknown to them at the time. The first one limited himself by his attitude towards the first blessing in his life while the second one who was foolishly grateful unlock a bigger grace for his destiny. Please learn to be grateful at the instant of receipt of that blessing not later. Pray earnestly for this grace. It is very important. Ability to be grateful instanta attracts powerful grace than when you do it later.

enjoyment is getting exactly what you want at the very time you need it

 That is general definition. But, what of if life give you a variant at some time. The reason is that you may ask for something and you happen to be receiving some other things which are also good but not the exact thing.

I know of this long time ago: “do not proffer a temporary solution to a permanent problem”. I meant you have thought it out wisely, that when I get this, it is a permanent solution to a permanent problem. There comes again a temporary solution to a permanent problem. Be thankful for it. It takes a deep thinking heart to be grateful.

For example, I need a job that will give me a source of income at least every month. For me , I think that is what I need, because with that I can plan ahead within my income and probably God willing,  be lifted  to a higher level. Can you see the wisdom of man!

Now, somehow, I don’t need to buy airtime for my phone because there is a means by which my phone is being topped up. Now, I don’t have to buy anti-malaria every three weeks again because there is this sure, sound and resound knowing in my head that I can not be sick again.

Now, I enjoy better power supply in my area compared to my former place. Let me stop here.

There is no job yet, some expenses that my salary would have taken care of are being supplied by grace.

Don’t I owe God praise for all this and many more that I can only know if and only if I have a grateful hearts. There comes a day that this message came to my mind and I was left with no strength within me. I totally see my shortcoming. I totally see my ingratitude.

 I quickly remember the past. I came off the best student in my Senior Certificate Exam. All therefter, it was how to move on with the certificate to a higher level.  Is aspiring for higher level a sin? Little discontent after contentment is not a sin. The question is -Was I grateful enough? Was I sincerely grateful? I could remember that indeed God answered my prayer for that very result.

 Is the problem psychological? I read in a book titled “why do I behave the way I behave” the author described a particular class as the type that behave in such a way that, when they see good things happening, say, a birth of new bouncing baby boy, not because they are not happy with it, but they are already thinking and praying for what the baby will eat and how he will get a good care. When they see a good result like mine in an exam, since it is not the end in itself, they are already aspiring for future and greater certificate.

He said further that, this category of people so much depend on deep thinking to solve most of their problem and they only hand over most difficult ones to God in prayer.

God has helped you. Please help yourself.

At this juncture, may be I will recommend that once in a while, sit yourself down and think why you should be thankful. Holy Spirit will surely show you what has gone amiss.

This is more than general blessing like the rain, the sun, the air will breathe in or to be alive like anybody. There are certain things that are specific and cogent at some instant that only when it is well thought out that you will see it, as the integral blessing for the moment and more so, it is to test your ability to show thankfulness.

For the fact that you didn’t express your thanks at the right time has made you unthankful.  However, it is better late than never. Now that you have seen the secret between those that enjoy greater grace than you, you better retrace your step. That is why door has been closed to that, so called big thing. That is the reason sometimes for the UN-ANSWERED PRAYER.

Everything called problem or obstacle is not from witch or wizard.  I got this sometimes ago, “the problem is not witch or wizard but the bringing-up of this people who resolve to behave contrary”

 Grace could have spoken for you in some places and you would have seen yourself flying higher if you had been grateful on time.

Be thankful.

Be  truly thankful for that very one in your hand, no matter how foolish it seems to appreciate it, be thankful for it.

 Thank you and the peace of the Father that surpasses all understanding guard your spirit and mind, amen
