DELAYS ARE NOT ALWAYS DENIALS

There were times when my prayers were not answered right away. I didn't know why at first, but as I wait upon the Lord, I would understand why God had to delay answering them because 1. It's not time yet, 2. the intention of my heart needs to change. 3. He simply wants me to stretch out my faith. Delays are not always denials. If we stay long enough to trust God in our waiting we will see how He will accomplish thing for us in His right time. I John 5:14-15, “This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us. And if we know that he hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of him."
