Daily Dose is brought to you five days a week, as an easy and short, daily devotional on His Truth in the Word. I'm afraid that perhaps you will not, and my prayers are just bouncing off the ceiling. Perhaps we are very intent on believing that God will do what His Word says He will do, at the moment we pray. But, if we don't stay in the Word all the time, and keep our minds stayed on Him, then, it's easy for us to be swayed by outside interference. Those thoughts just pop up, and they are easily entertained, if our spirit isn't connected with His Spirit.
Patience is a key to getting prayers answered.
To have patience, we need the grace of God. Without His grace, temptations come, and we stroll off to the right or left, and forget the straight and narrow path that we must follow. The voice of God is the report I want to hear and believe. Help us to keep our minds and hearts stayed on you. We know that you are the deliverer and your report is the only one we want to hear.
