“… Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, …” Ephesians 3:20 “The God who made the world and all things in it, since He is Lord of heaven and earth, does not dwell in temples made with hands; …” Acts 17:24

Faith in god’s ability to Answer

“… The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.” “The LORD gave and the LORD has taken away. Blessed be the name of the LORD.” Job 1:21 “… The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.” James 5:16

God is forever omnipotent, and still can speak it to make it happen. God’s words created (Hebrews 11:3). God’s Son spoke and healed (Luke 7:6-7). God is a caring Father (1 Peter 5:6-7). Guards heart and mind with peace (Philippians 4:6-7) Grants goodness (Matthew 7:7-11)

All prayerful requests of the faithful are not always answered in the manner for which we specifically want and ask. According to God’s will (1 John 5:14-15)… Not for selfish pleasures (James 4:3)… Focused on godliness, truth and salvation (1 Timothy 2:1-4)… In faith without doubting (James 1:6)…

All prayerful requests of the faithful are not always answered in the manner for which we specifically want and ask. God’s purpose is more important than our requests and has a greater good for all. 2 Corinthians 13:7-10

“… However, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth Luke 18:8
