TEXT: “He that turneth away his ear from hearing the law, even his prayer shall be abomination” (Prov 28:9)
I want to begin the prophetic focus for this month (Answered prayers) by first laying a proper foundation. This is because the foundation of any building determines the durability, the strength and the efficiency of that building. There is something you must do to make your prayer effective this month and onwards. Many are frustrated today because this foundation is ignored.
Hear me beloved, there are people that God will never ever hear their prayers even if they cut themselves with knives like those prophets of Baal in the Bible. Those who turn away their ears from the gospel can never be heard by God when they pray. If you continue in sin despite all the warnings you received, your prayer becomes an abomination before God. You will not be a victim, in the name of Jesus.
The Psalmist says “If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.”
Iniquity is a stumbling block to answers to prayers. There is no amount of prayer someone who lives in sin prays that will get God’s attention except his prayer of repentance. It is salvation that guarantees answers to prayer. If you are not saved you only make noise to God in prayer. The foundation of salvation must be laid now if you will experience answers to your prayers this month and onwards.
Have you given your life to Jesus or you are just a church goer? Are you really sure you will make heaven if the trumpet sounds now? If you are not saved even if you are a title holder in your church, you’re still lost. There is an opportunity for you to surrender your life to Jesus today. Tomorrow might just be too late.
If you’re ready, say this prayer and mean it from your heart:
“Lord Jesus, I am a sinner; forgive my sins, cleanse me with your blood. I believe you died for me and on the third day you rose again that I might be justified. I accept you today as my Lord and Saviour. Thank you for saving me from the power of sin. Now, I am born again.”
If you just said this prayer, I welcome you to the family of God. Please call us on: +2348167589854 for further instructions!
PRAYER: You will enjoy answers to prayers this month and onwards, in Jesus name.
DAILY CONFESSION: This year 2023, I am finally on a Covenant Highway, Jesus is giving me Answers and I am enjoying Rest Round About – Amen and Amen!
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: “Iniquity is a stumbling block to answers to prayers.”
