I will be praying for you. Please know Your Father loves you more than you will ever know.
I think we’ve all wondered, “God, do you really hear me?” I know I have. We pray and pray and it seems like nothing changes. We beg for freedom, we cry out for a respite, for peace, but it seems so elusive. We hear a thought in our head,
God does not hear my prayers and we think it’s our thought. Quietly, we agree with this subtle attack of the devil. The enemy constantly accuses us and lies to us. He is the father of lies
(John 10:10) and he spews his lies and confusion all over of us to thwart God’s plans for our lives. We cannot give into this voice that says God does not hear our prayers. God listens. This I know without one shred of doubt. I know it feels like He is silent but once you come out of this you will see that He was there every second of every day.. He loves you, He created you, you ARE His Beloved.
Another subtle lie from the enemy is that we are not worthy enough for God to hear our prayers. It’s just not true! When you receive Christ, you are instantly made worthy. He took our sins and we took his righteousness.
2 Corinthians 5:21 says it this way, “God made [Jesus] who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” Now that you are righteous in Christ, you can boldly come to the throne of grace in your time of need (Hebrews 4:16).
Too often, we approach God in prayer with a sinner mentality. “Lord, I’m a wretched sinner. Woe is me! I’m not worthy to come before you.” This way of thinking is wrong. Once you receive Christ, you are no longer a slave—you are a child of God!
Continue to pray so that when panic, fear or anxiety hits you can rest in the confidence that He IS with you.
