God bless you Willilam. William, many many christian walk by sight and when things dont go their way, they feal that God has not answer and they get discourage and give up. But God says "we walk by faith and not by sight" Even when we dont see, we believe, providing that our motive are not of the flesh for material gain James 4:3. Our motive and action should be line up with kingdom principles. God will not withold any good thing from us, accordimg to His word.
I dont know of your plight in life, but when you read the Bible, you will see different kind of prayer for certain situation. When Paul and Silus were put in jail for the gospel of our Lord Jesus, not only used prayer, but worshiping and praising God. Praying over that mountain in your life. Sometimes there are things that we attach to in the flesh which prevents us to achieve and have a breakthrough. Therefore, we must examine ourselves and ask God what is blocking our prayers.
Now, if I have unforgiveness in my heart against anyone, I know that God will not answer my prayer. If I lied and bare false witness against anyone, lust after a woman's husband, be dishonest with others, envy other and other various sins, God will not hear me unless, I repent. God will reveal our hidden sins. These can be hinderance in our prayer. We have to come clean with God. We cant fool Him.
So Father I pray for William as he comes before Your of mercy and open his soul and heart before You, pour out Your blessing upon him. Father, You know our needs more than we know them for ourselves. Reveal yourself to William, and show him, the man he is in You. I ask that You drop wisdom in his soul, leading him to Yourself that he may know his true identity is in You and You alone. Father put a spirit of hunger in him to hunger after You in Jesus name. Amen
