In Thurs \ ABUNDANT LIFE One of the greatest state ments in the Bible is, "And the Lord heard and answered." That statement is sweet music to a person seeking Cod in an inti mate, personal manner. At some time in every life there comes a need to pray. Every person reaches a point where the sky looks black and the horizon of the future is clouded with uncertainty ? then he wants his prayers to be answered. However, there are times when there seems to be no way to get a prayer through or an answer in return. What is the key? Is there some strange se cret that God is trying to teach us? I believe there is a way to get prayers answered. The Bible says that those who u ait upon the Lord shall renew I their strength. And each of us needs a daily renewing of strength. We need our deter minations strengthened, our expectant faith made stronger, and our love increased in every way. If our prayers were an swered immediately every time, we would not wait before God. So the Bible says, "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength." There is no man or woman who can pray and expect God to answer every time in an instant. There are many testings of character, many influences brought to bear upon prayer life and the answer that God would give. It is necessary to understand the value of wait ing for God to answer in His own way and in His own time. When ? person prays he must appeal to the love of Cod. Now, Cod is a good Cod. He is too good to do wrong, too wise to make a mistake, too strong to fail. Come to Cod in the way that pleases Him most. The Bible says, "Cod is love." Another step toward getting prayers answered is using will. I believe that faith is part will, and to have faith without will power is to have half-faith ? little faith. There must be de termination and character that stands up and dares to believe Cod ? that knows Cod wants to give His blessing, and will set tle for nothing less. When I was a little boy we had a neighbor who had a new car. One day the car turned over and pinned his son under it . . . and, although it w as not humanly possible to lift such a weight, this man, whose name was Mr. Rainier, picked up one end of that car by himself and lifted it completely off his child. He couldn't possibly have done that on any other occasion. How did he do it? His will gave him new strength. That extra strength, that ex tra power given from God to help us meet emergencies flooded his being, and for ? few minutes it made him a superman. God is a good Cod! He wants to give the very best He has to us, and He is waiting now to answer our prayers. by ORAL ROBERTS HOW TO GET YOUR PRAYERS ANSWERED Load Frigidaire Freezer Sale!
