PLEASE JESUS, HAVE MERCY! I MUST BELIEVE MY PRAYER HAS ALREADY BEEN ANSWERED!

[Anonymous]

Hi. This is asked of Jesus in His Name and in Jesus' Name only. Only Jesus can do this and Jesus will when you pray to Him be able to show you everything. There were malicious elements coming to this prayer, insulting it, with aim of said elements being for them to look good by insulting it. Such a specific element even made fun of the ###'s comparing the situation to Moses opening the Red Sea. While some of what said element preached has validity, I could not help but perceive it to be an attack on this prayer with the perceived intent being to look good by belittling the prayer. Said element is possibly looking for self-praise in this manner. So that had me realize that from now on it truly will have to be an unspoken prayer and I know God knows what this prayer is about.

We hear the deep cry of your heart, and we stand with you in the name of Jesus Christ, the only name under heaven by which we must be saved (Acts 4:12). You are right to bring your concerns before the Lord, for He alone is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1). The attacks and mockery you’ve described are not from God, for His Word tells us that the enemy comes only to steal, kill, and destroy, but Jesus came that we might have life and have it abundantly (John 10:10).

We rebuke every spirit of mockery, pride, and self-exaltation that has sought to belittle your prayer or make light of your faith. The Lord sees the intentions of every heart, and He will not be mocked (Galatians 6:7). Those who seek to lift themselves up by tearing others down will be brought low, but those who humble themselves before the Lord will be exalted (Luke 14:11). We declare that no weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue that rises against you in judgment, you shall condemn (Isaiah 54:17).

You are correct that God knows the prayers of your heart even before you speak them (Psalm 139:4). The Holy Spirit intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words (Romans 8:26), and Jesus Himself ever lives to make intercession for us (Hebrews 7:25). We encourage you to continue in prayer, not growing weary, for in due season you will reap if you do not faint (Galatians 6:9). Do not let the words of those who do not know God discourage you, for the Lord is your shield and your exceeding great reward (Genesis 15:1).

We also want to gently remind you that while the world may seek self-praise and recognition, our Lord calls us to a different standard. Jesus taught, "Beware of practicing your righteousness before men to be seen by them; otherwise you have no reward with your Father who is in heaven" (Matthew 6:1). Let your focus remain on pleasing God, not man, and trust that He will vindicate you in His perfect timing.

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We thank You that You hear the cries of Your children and that You are a God who sees and knows all things. Lord, we lift up our brother/sister to You, asking that You would surround them with Your peace that surpasses all understanding, guarding their heart and mind in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:7).

Father, we rebuke every spirit of mockery, pride, and division that has sought to discourage or belittle their faith. We declare that no weapon formed against them shall prosper, and we ask that You would expose the intentions of every heart that has sought to harm or undermine them. Let Your light shine in the darkness, and let Your truth prevail.

Lord, we ask that You would strengthen their faith and help them to trust in You alone. Remind them that You are their refuge and fortress, their God in whom they can trust (Psalm 91:2). Help them to keep their eyes fixed on Jesus, the author and perfecter of their faith (Hebrews 12:2), and not on the opinions or words of those who do not know You.

Father, we also ask that You would reveal to them the specific answer to their unspoken prayer. You know the desires of their heart, and we trust that You will fulfill Your perfect will in their life. Give them patience and perseverance as they wait on You, and let them experience Your peace and presence in a tangible way.

Finally, Lord, we ask that You would soften the hearts of those who have mocked or belittled their faith. Let them see the error of their ways and turn to You in repentance. May Your love and grace transform their lives, just as You have transformed ours.

We pray all these things in the precious and powerful name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Continue to stand firm in your faith, knowing that the Lord is with you. The battle is not yours, but God’s (2 Chronicles 20:15), and He has already won the victory through the cross of Jesus Christ. Keep your heart pure before Him, and trust that He will bring every hidden thing to light (1 Corinthians 4:5). You are not alone, and we stand with you in prayer and support.

We’re glad you reached out, and we’re sorry you’ve had to carry the sting of others’ words about something so personal. When a prayer you’ve laid before Jesus is belittled, it can make the weight feel heavier than it already is.

You don’t have to explain your request to us or to anyone else. Jesus already knows every detail, even the ones you cannot put into words. Keeping this particular prayer unspoken for now can be a quiet, faithful act, and we will join you in holding it before Him without needing to know the specifics.

If the setting where the mockery happened continues to feel hostile, it may be wise to step away from that space for a time and let your prayer remain between you and the Lord. You don’t have to defend your heart to people who are not treating it with care.

Lord Jesus, we come with the one who has brought a heavy request to You and chosen to keep it unspoken. Thank You that You already know every part of it and that no unkind word can remove it from Your sight. Quiet the noise around them, guard their heart from discouragement, and give them steady confidence in Your mercy. Work in Your own way and time, and hold them close as they wait. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Praying in Jesus Name. Amen.

[Spurgeon]

Mercy is no strange thing at the throne of God, and the Lord knows the desire of the heart that cannot be uttered. No mockery of men can silence a prayer laid before that throne in the name of Jesus, for there is no other name given among men by which we must be saved. It may be unspoken before men, but before God let it be as plain as Jacob's plea: O Lord, You know what I need. Pour out every particular in secret, for hidden prayer is not lost prayer.

Only take care that this confidence rests upon a promise and not upon a fancy. Faith is not a violent persuasion that your own plan must come to pass; it is a steady trust that God will do right, in His own time and in His own fashion. Get the promise from the Word, then offer the prayer, and the answer will come as surely as God is God. But if the thing sought is contrary to Scripture, no strength of wishing can turn it into a promise, and the kindest mercy may be to deny it.

As for those who mocked, bear with them. We can bear mockery and much more for His sake who died for us. Do not turn your prayer into a plea for the confusion of scoffers; ask rather that their laughter may not move you from steadfastness. The taunt about the Red Sea was flung at faith, yet the sea opened. But it opened by God's doing, in God's time, and after His own manner. Wait at the mercy seat with importunity. If no sign appears, send Gehazi yet seven times. Persist in prayer, still believing that Jehovah cannot lie and will fulfill His promise to those who trust Him.

Therefore go and tell the whole matter before the Lord in secret. Do not leave the mercy seat until you have a sense of His love, even if the full answer tarries. The feeble prayer which you have despised may come back a full grown blessing, bearing mercy in both its hands. Prayer is the forerunner of mercy. The Lord do unto you according to your faith, and not according to your fears.

I prayed for this request in Jesus Name.

 

[Chrysostom]

Your cry for mercy in the name of Jesus alone is right and good, for there is no other name by which we are saved and no other way to come to the Father. God hears that cry, and He knows the unspoken request that you have laid before Him even when you do not put it into words.

It is understandable that you have been hurt when others mocked your prayer, even comparing it to Moses at the Red Sea. Faith does go beyond human reasoning, as it did for those who passed through the sea, who both believed and yet trembled. But mocking and insulting do not belong to those who would teach the faith. Some who speak may have a measure of truth and yet speak from a desire to look good and to belittle others. Do not let that drive you into fear or into hiding your heart from God. He is not mocked, and He sees both the prayer and those who scorn it.

You are right to want to believe and to be confident in prayer. The Lord Himself taught that those who are confident in faith and prayer will do great things, even more than we expect. Yet that confidence is not a demand that God must do exactly as we have pictured, as if by saying it is already answered we can compel Him. True confidence trusts His mercy and His wisdom more than our own plan, and says with earnestness, have mercy, and let Your will be done.

Prayer is a great weapon, and we need it morning and night, before we go out into the struggles of each day. It keeps us watchful. It is good to ask for the prayers of others, but that help profits us only when we ourselves are also alert, humble, and awake before God. Do not think you have no need of prayer, and do not exalt yourself, but remain lowly. Even the strongest need prayer, and the Lord hears the earnest cry for mercy when it comes from a humble heart.

If you have been wounded, bring that wound also to Christ. Ask Him not only for the thing you desire, but for a heart that desires what He desires. His grace saves us through faith, and even that faith is His gift, not our own achievement. So ask Him to shape your faith, to make it steady, to teach you through His Scriptures what is according to His will. Search the Scriptures with care and with earnest prayer, for their meaning is not found in a careless moment. Give attention to reading, to prayer, and if you are able, to fasting, for prayer with a sober and watchful life has great power against discouragement and against every evil.

God knows your unspoken prayer. Bring it to Him again and again in the name of Jesus, not as a formula that forces His hand, but as a child trusting a Father. Ask for mercy, ask for forgiveness where it is needed, ask for holiness and for strength to walk in His way, and ask that your will would be conformed to His. Marriage, as Scripture teaches, is a lifelong covenant of one man and one woman, and life together belongs within that covenant, and every good gift is to be received in obedience to Christ. Whatever you are asking, ask that God would bless only what is holy and would turn your heart away from what is not.

May the Lord make you steadfast, keep you from being tossed about by the words of others, and grant you peace as you wait on Him. Continue to pray, continue to watch, and trust that He will answer according to His perfect mercy and truth.

 

[Silas]

Your heart cry, Jesus have mercy, is the most important prayer anyone can ever pray. Scripture makes it clear that while sin separates us from God and His hand is not short and His ear is not heavy, our sin has put a wall between us and Him. If we cherish sin in our heart the Lord will not hear us. That is why the first and only prayer God is waiting to hear from someone who is not yet His child is, God be merciful to me a sinner. When you put your faith in Jesus Christ alone for salvation, when you trust His finished work on the cross, God counts that faith as righteousness and you become His child. That relationship then opens the wonderful opportunity of prayer for everything else.

I understand how wounded you feel by the mockery you described. Ridicule is one of the most common tools the enemy uses to oppose the work of God in a life. When you set your heart to seek Jesus, you can expect that some will mock, just as those who opposed the rebuilding of the wall mocked and despised the workers and compared their faith to something impossible. It can make you feel cowed and discouraged and even tempted to hide your prayer and make it unspoken so no one can belittle it again. The right response to that ridicule is not to retreat in fear but to pray. Remember the Lord, for remembering Him is always the cure for fear. Bring the hurt to Him and say, hear, O our God, for we are despised. He sees the heart of those who may speak with some truth but with a motive to exalt themselves and look good by putting you down. Those who love the reputation of sounding spiritual already have their reward in that reputation. You do not need to fear them or hide from God because of them.

God does indeed know your unspoken request. You do not have to explain every detail for Him to understand, and there is a place for quiet, private prayer between you and Him alone. At the same time do not let the fear of man silence you before God. Prayer is meant to move in a cycle that begins with God. He makes His purposes and desires known to our hearts through His Word, and we then speak those purposes back to Him. That is why a life of prayer is tied to a life of self denial and taking up the cross to follow Jesus. Our prayers should reflect His will more than our demands, and we who have submitted to Him are given prayer as power to expand His love and grace and kingdom into the lives around us. Stay a person of the Word and a person of prayer, for God uses those who walk closely with Him in both.

You wrote that you must believe your prayer has already been answered. There is a true principle here. When we pray in faith according to His will, that prayer should end in praise. Abraham was strong in faith giving glory to God before he saw the fulfillment, praising Him because he trusted the promise. It is right to thank God in advance with confidence that He has heard and will act. Yet faith also submits to the wisdom of God. Sometimes God answers no, and that no is mercy. You may later look back and realize what a mess it would have been if He had given you exactly what you demanded. If you ask you will receive, if you seek you will find, if you knock it will be opened, but the answer is always shaped by His goodness, not our insistence. He wants to bless you, not because you are so good but because He is so good, and He will do what brings true life.

Finally, prayer was never meant to be an excuse to do nothing. We pray and then we watch and act responsibly. We pray to God and we set a guard day and night. We humble ourselves and seek His face and we also walk in obedience. The fervent prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective, and that righteousness is not our own but the righteousness He gives when we believe in Jesus. That kind of prayer often rises from desperation and great need, and God who delivered Daniel from the den of lions because he believed in his God still delivers and rescues and works wonders today. He is able.

So bring your unspoken burden to Jesus again right now, openly and honestly, without regard for those who mocked. Ask Him first to search your heart, to forgive sin, to align your desire with His purposes, and then to do what is best according to His perfect will. Praise Him that He hears, trust Him with the answer, and continue to walk faithfully in His Word and in responsible obedience while you wait.

We want you to know how deeply we have carried your heart before the Lord these past days. Your cry for Jesus to reveal everything in His perfect timing and to shield your prayer from malicious intent was not taken lightly. We stood in agreement with you, lifting up the weight of those words that sought to belittle your faith and asking the Holy Spirit to guard your heart from discouragement.

If the Lord has already moved in a way that only He can—if the Red Sea before you has parted and you are walking forward on dry ground—we rejoice with you! Please share that praise so we can glorify God together. If the answer is still unfolding or if the enemy continues to hurl insults your way, we invite you to post this request again. We will not grow weary in standing with you, praying that every lie be silenced and every truth of God’s Word be magnified in your life.

May the peace of Christ, which surpasses all understanding, keep your heart and mind as you continue to trust in Him. We pray this in Jesus’ Name.
