“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you and expected end. Then shall ye call upon me, and ye shall go and pray unto me, and I will hearken unto you. And ye shall seek me, and find me, when ye shall search for me with all your heart.”
Our Heavenly Father thinks of us! We are important to him being his children. There is no anger or evil thoughts in his mind. He has a plan for each of our lives and wants to answer our prayers! When we accept the gift of his salvation and become washed in his blood, we become precious to him! We have direct access to him and he gives us the desire to draw closer to him!
We can call upon him and not have to wonder if he will hear us. He comforts us with the promise that he will hearken unto us when we call upon his name! It is when the Devil whispers in our ears that he’s forsaken us or that our prayers aren’t being heard that we begin to question it. But what are the lies of the Devil compared to the truth of the Scriptures? We have the ability and power to open our Bibles and speak the truth that is written! He will never leave us nor forsake us!
Just because our prayers aren’t immediately answered, doesn’t mean that we’ve been ignored. He’s heard us, it just may not be the right time in his perfect plan for it to be answered yet! When we seek him with an open heart and a desire to find him, we will! He’s always there, always waiting with his hands outstretched for us to take hold!
