When God prompts you to pray for a specific person or urges you to lift a particular petition before Him, be obedient. God hears your prayers and He will answer them.
If you let go in prayer, listen, wait and trust in God’s love, you’ll realize your ideas pale compared to what God and the Holy Spirit might have in mind.
Jesus sends people in our lives, other friends, dear ones, family members, loved ones, who stick with us, guide us, help us, sustain us. And sometimes they are complete strangers, appearing out of nowhere, making God’s music with us.
When you’re praying for a sign from God but not hearing a response, just wait. An answered prayer can come in the most unlikely of ways.
If you’re struggling with some prayer that you get tired of uttering–as we all do–take heart. The answer could be something you have never expected, never even asked for.
