I've been blessed for the past four years of attending the Kerygma Conference (an annual inspirational event led by Bro. Bo Sanchez). One of my favorite talks this year was from Fr. Bob McConaghy for the Prayer and Worship class. He talked about how the Lord answers prayers.
Let me share with you some of my notes from Fr. Bob's talk.
-Prayer is intimacy. (Into Me See)
-God can change His mind. He is like a good parent who talks to His child.
-Choose God. Because in Him, you are known and loved.
-When we pray, God is asking, "Are you ready to listen to Me?"
1. When your prayer is not right, God says, "NO"
-When He says No, it's because He loves you. And if you really love someone,
will you put him/her at risk?
-Greatest miracle: Jesus conquering death.
-In painful moments, God is with you.
2. When you're not right, God says, "GROW"
- It's painful to grow.
-We need to allow maturity & growth in our life.
-Don't blame Him if He doesn't answer you right away.
-Be careful for asking signs. It might be something you set for yourself.
3. When the timing of your prayer is not right, God says, "SLOW"
-We often asked, Why?
-When you're down to nothing, God is up to something.
-When you pray, ask Him to surprise you.
-He has something better for you.
4. When everything is right, God says, "GO"
-He will answer just the way you want it and need it.
As I reflected, I realized that God has answered my prayers. I left the room carrying the lessons I've learned.
God indeed does answer every prayer.
P.S. I only sat in on this class. Thank You Lord for the divine appointment. =)
