1 JOHN‬ ‭5:14-15‬ ‭(AMP‬‬) - This is the [remarkable degree of] confidence which we [as believers are entitled to] have before Him: that if we ask anything according to His will, [that is, consistent with His plan and purpose] He hears us. And if we know [for a fact, as indeed we do] that He hears and listens to us in whatever we ask, we [also] know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted to us] the requests which we have asked from Him.”

This scripture contains a major key 🔑 to receiving answers to all of your prayers. That is, does your prayer request line up with the will of God? When you’re praying for something, that is the number one question that you should be asking yourself. The question then becomes, how do I know if my prayer request is in alignment with the will of God? You determine that through the scriptures. If God has already promised it, in His word, then your request already lines up with His will for your life. His Will and His Word are synonymous. So, the question now becomes, “Does my request line up with the Word of God”? If it does then it also lines up with His Will. Now you can pray, with confidence, believing that God has both heard and answered your prayer 🙏🏽.
