October Surprise, October Fifteenth, 2023 - Pray with Faith. Pt 2

Praying by faith means praying expecting answers from the God who revealed to us, the fervent prayers of a righteous man accomplishes much.


J.C. Ryle urges us to pray and expect to see the answers.


“Above all, we should cultivate the habit of expecting answers to our prayers. We should do like the merchant who sends his ships to sea. We should not be satisfied, unless we see some return. Alas, there are few points on which Christians come short so much as this. The church at Jerusalem made prayer without ceasing for Peter in prison; but when the prayer was answered, they would hardly believe it (Acts 12:15).”


Ryle's next statement is sorrowful to me, for it took a long time, but people have asked many times for prayer. And yet, many never come back with the answer.

Why?

Far too often, pastor Ryle has the answer:

"It is a solemn saying of Traill, (Robert) "There is no surer mark of trifling in prayer, than when men are careless what they get by prayer."

Jesus tells the Father in John,

"Father, I thank Thee that Thou heardest Me. 42 "And I knew that Thou hearest Me always; but because of the people standing around I said it, that they may believe that Thou didst send Me."

John 11:41-42


Holy brethren, let us flirt with God no longer, but pray for one another and glory with one another with His answers.

"What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."
