Delayed Answers to Prayer-Part 1

Delayed Answered Prayer-Part One
Pastor Richard D. Dover

There are a variety of reasons for delays in our prayers being answered. But we need to trust that God will always answer our prayers, even if the answer is delayed or is no.

Reasons for Delayed Answers to Prayer:
God is answering our prayer but we do not realize it because we have God in a box. We need to not lean on our own understanding. Proverbs 3:5

Spiritual Warfare-Satan is trying to thwart our prayers being answered
Daniel 10

God's Timing is the Best Timing. God's answers to our prayers bring Him glory when it is clear that it is Him answering our prayer.
Ester 4, Esther 8

Disobedience, rebellion, grumbling, complaining, lack of faith
Zacchaeus was blessed because he did what Jesus said.
Luke 19:9-10

Sometimes the answer is no, even for a godly man like Apostle Paul.
2 Corinthians 12:6-9

Even if God says no, ALL THINGS WORK OUT FOR GOOD FOR THOSE WHO LOVE GOD
Romans 8:28-29

Seek But Not Find

Seek But Not Find
Pastor Richard D. Dover

Some seek for God’s will, some seek for knowledge but reject godly counsel. Some let pride and sin interfere in finding wisdom.

Fool does not seek counsel
Proverbs 28:26
Proverbs 1:7

Favor and Wisdom when seek counsel.
Proverbs 19:20, Proverbs 12:15

Difference between receiving counsel and not receiving counsel.
Proverbs 15:31-32
NLT
31 If you listen to constructive criticism, you will be at home among the wise.
32 If you reject discipline, you only harm yourself; but if you listen to correction, you grow in understanding.

Trust the Word and those who share the word.

Proverbs 3:5-6
6 Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.

Don’t Need a Teacher
I John 2:26
Prior context is having a mature faith in Christ, about God’s word living in your heart, not loving the world. These are conditions in order for you to hear clearly from God. One of the fivefold gifts is Teacher, Thus there is still the need of teachers. Apostle Paul started a school of leaders to raise up disciples-they were being taught by Apostle Paul.

If not born again, cannot be lead by the Holy Spirit.
