God's answer is never no

God’s answer is never “No”

God’s answer to us is never No!

One

God does not answer your prayers, he sometimes says ‘no,’ saying, it might not be good for you, or he knows best, and this is ‘complete rubbish,’ it is a lie told by your enemy to teachers who interpret God’s word with human thinking and because of their unbelief. Christians have listened to enough lies without this lie being told to them as well, by their leaders who haven’t studied the word of God well enough under the Holy Spirits guidance. I will prove this in the next few pages in this book, and then you can judge for yourself if the word of God is accurate or not.

I have been distressed by the number of people who ask God for things, and when they don’t get what they asked for in the time they think they should have got it, or it was past the time they needed it, {say to pay a bill by a certain date.} they are told, it wasn’t meant for you, or for someone who died God wanted them in heaven, or it wasn’t good for you, or some other excuse for bad teaching, a good teacher is someone who says ‘don’t give up’ keep on asking and keep on praising, until it arrives, you will not get things you asked for without fighting in praise and worship for them, because an angel is sent out from heaven the moment God hears your prayers, and that angel has to fight his way to you through demonic forces, andthenafterhedeliversyourprayerrequesthethenhastofighthiswaybackagaintoheaven. Read the book of Daniel chapter, 10, better still I will include that passage in this for you to read but you will have more understanding if you read all of Daniel-10.

Daniel 10

New International Version (NIV)

12 Then he continued, “Do not be afraid, Daniel. Since the ‘first day’ that you set your mind to gain understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them. 13 But the prince of the Persian kingdom resisted me twentyone days. {*This is one of Satan’s angels*}Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me, because I was detained there with the king of Persia. 14Now I have come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the future, for the vision concerns a time yet to come.” *My explanation*

{There are different types of demonic angels, each with different ranks just as there in the kingdom of God, and this demonic angel was in charge of the place and country of Persia, the king he talks about here is not a human king but a demonic angel ruler above a country.}

This is what happens when you pray, an angel is sent with an answer immediately and that angel has to fight his way through the enemy’s demonic angels. He has to battle his way through, and the help he gets normally is our ‘thanks and praise’ in faith to God, that is where he draws his strength from. If our faith and belief is strong then he receives strength from our

faith and praise, if we don’t give up then we will receive your prayer answer. If our faith wavers, his strength grows weaker and if you give up, that mighty glorious angel has to turn away in defeat.

The next time you pray for something that is in line with the promises God gave in his word, remember an angel is dispatched with your answer, so don’t disgrace your angel by giving up.

Many Christian preachers and teachers say that God says ‘No’ to our requests because he knows what’s best for us and so refuses us what we ask for, and says ‘no!’

If scripture is to be believed then according to scripture his answers are ‘always’ ‘yes’ for the Christian children of God, who should only ask for good things. If you are truly a Christian, loving yourGod, you willneverask forsomething thatbelonged to someoneelseorsomething that would hurt you now would you? Common sense prevails here, you would never ask for the man next doors wife, because she belongs to him. And you would never ask for his money, that’s his also, but you can ask for a wife / husband, and you can ask for money also and you will get them, if you find it in his promises, and later I will share with you some promises from God which will help you get everything you desire from God.

Two

Why some so called ‘prayers’ will never be answered.

God will not listen to a sin filled prayer

As Christians we know or should know not to ask God for something that belongs to someone else, because that is not in line with the promises God has given in his word; and wanting someone else’s wife for yourself, is ‘coveting your neighbors wife,’ and that is a sin; so we will not ask God for the neighbors wife, if we did, we would be asking God to endorse your sin and that will never happen, the same applies to your neighbors money or goods, that sin applies also, do not covet your neighbors goods. But you can ask for a wife of your own, and you can ask for money and goods from God and he will give them both to you.

There are of course people out there who would ask for something’s that are sinful, and it is not that God says no, it is ‘he will not listen to that prayer’ so he does not need to answer, his word alone tells us not to covet what others have. God will never contradict himself, if he says something is sinful and should not be asked for, then he will not answer a sinful prayer, because that is not a prayer at all, it is a sin disguised as prayer

Before you go on further in this little book ask yourself, ‘do I disguise a sin by calling it a prayer? Knowing deep down inside you should not ask for this thing. You know you are asking God for something you should never ask for. If you have, then now is a good time to repent and say, ‘sorry lord, I will not do that again.’

Now continue on reading, and you will find out that there is very little that you cannot ask God for, in fact God’s word says you can ask him for anything, {except your neighbors wife or goods’ - coveting,}

18 God can be trusted, and so can I, when I say that our answer to you has always been “Yes” and never “No.” 19 This is because Jesus Christ the Son of God is always “Yes” and never “No.” And he is the one that Silas, Timothy, and I told you about.20 Christ says “Yes” to all of God’s promises. That’s why we have Christ to say “Amen” for us to the glory of God.

If God promised something in his word, Jesus is the answer ‘yes’ to his promises; remember the answer is ‘yes’ to anything God promised. If you find a promise from God in the bible, God’s word, and that promise is directed at the children of God then that promise is for you to receive.

Did God promise to give you happiness- yes?

Contemporary-English-Version Psalm-97:11 if you obey and do right, a light will show you the way and fill you with happiness.

-------------------------------

I think there are enough promises from God to meet your every need or request, especially when God says to, “ask anything in Jesus name and he will give it to you,” what more do we need than that promise.-- John 16-23-Contemporary English Version (CEV). There is nowhere in those promises that God says ‘no,’ all he asks is, that we obey him, and that is easy to do if we are in love with him.

Four

Every promise is ‘Yes’ through Christ Jesus

God promised us everything we ever need so every promise is ‘Yes’ through Christ Jesus. Nowhere is it in scripture that God goes back on his promises and says no. If it is in his word

as a promise then you must find that promise and you must stick to it and remind God about it, he does not need reminding but ‘we do,’ and if he says to keep me in remembrance, we do; and thank him till his answers come, we never turn around and give up. In Daniel, God answered Daniels prayer and sent an angel with the answer immediately. Now I will give you a beautiful scripture promise which covers every miracle that you need.

John 14 New International Version (NIV)

12 Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the ‘works’ ‘I have been doing,’ and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. 13And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 You may ask me for “anything” in my name, and I will do it.

This scripture is for every miracle working power to heal the sick raise the dead and deliver people from demonic power, look at the word, ‘whoever believes in me’ {Jesus} will do the same works I have been doing. The promise that God gives in this scripture tells us that he will give you the power to work miracles the same as Jesus, for Jesus will do them through you. In this scripture we ask Jesus himself, not the father, for Jesus said to ‘ask him.’ So if we pray the wrong way, we might not receive what we are asking for because we didn’t ask in line with the promise, and the promise here in this scripture is for miracles the works that Jesus done. This is a promise that Jesus gave and he will not go back on a promise.

This next scripture is saying. The ‘father will give you what you ask for in the name of Jesus,’ this is where we are to use the name of Jesus in prayer for a need or request. Every prayer that is not for a healing miracle is included in this scripture because you now have the name of Jesus to back your request because Jesus said to use his name

John 16-23-Contemporary English Version (CEV)

23 When that time comes, you won’t have to ask me about anything. I tell you for certain that the Father ‘will’ give ‘you’ whatever ‘you’ ‘ask’ ‘for in my name. 24 ‘You’ have not asked for anything in this way before, but now ‘you’ must ‘ask in my name.’ Then it ‘will’ be given to ‘you,’ so that ‘you’ will be completely happy.

Does scripture say here that you can only ask for certain things? Or does it say, you can ask for anything, did you see that, you can ask for anything, where are the limits to asking in this scripture promise? Jesus is telling you to ask for anything and anything means exactly that. Don’t accept the lies and deceits of the enemy, either through people or direct from the enemy himself but believe the promise of Jesus. God didn’t say you can ask me for anything except, money, or food or healing or comfort, he said ask anything; take him at his word; he never goes back on it.

Will God givemewhat I asked for or will hegivemesomething else?Hewill giveyou exactly what you asked for, if you remain locked into that request without wavering.

What father would give a scorpion to a son if he asked for an egg? None!

Your father will give you exactly what you ask for; if you ask for a red car expect a red one, not a blue one, exactly what you asked for; Just like Rose and I did. Many years ago we began praying for a car, we couldn’t afford to buy one, and Rose said, ‘I want a red one,’ a little later I was given a car for free and it was exactly as Rose asked for, a ‘red one.’

Luke-11:12 Common-English-Bible

if a child asked for an egg, what father would give the child a scorpion?

You see you will get what you asked for. God is our Father and he gives us what we ask for if we ask in faith in him.

John 15-7-Good News Translation (GNT)

7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, then you will ask for anything you wish, and you “shall have it.”8 My Father's glory is shown by your bearing much fruit; and in this way you become my disciples. Whatscripturesay;he won’t giveit to you, in any of thescriptures, which aretheword of God; what scripture says ‘no?’ He says; you ‘shall have it.’

Five

God says No to Paul

In God’s word I see one scripture where God says no, and that is to Saint Paul, where he said to Paul, ‘my power shows up best in weak people.’ Paul was asking God to heal his eyes, and no one knows for certain whether it was Paul’s eyes that had an ugly disease in them or whether Paul was asking because of pride. I know there are some scriptures where God said no to the Israelites and that was because they were in disobedience to him. In Saint Paul’s case it seems like Paul was sinning in pride because of all the wonderful things he was bragging about, including visiting heaven, so if his sin was pride, well then he asked in sin and not as a prayer to be answered. And as I stated previously, God does not listen to a sin filled prayer.

If you are one of those who feel tempted to include yourself in this category then you also are sinning with pride, not only that, but when did you walk into heaven and when did you rise the dead and feel the power of heaven to be equal with Saint Paul, so don’t be silly.

God will not answer sin no matter who you are or what you experienced, he will say no every time to a sinful prayer; and as I said before it does not go up to him as a prayer but as a sin, he sees it as sin.

In conclusion

Jesus Christ is the ‘yes’ to every promise that God his Father made. 2 Corinthians 1-18-Contemporary English Version (CEV)

18 God can be trusted, and so can I, when I say that our answer to you has always been “Yes” and never “No.” 19 This is because Jesus Christ the Son of God is always “Yes” and never “No.” And he is the one that Silas, Timothy, and I told you about.20 Christ says “Yes” to all of God’s promises. That’s why we have Christ to say “Amen” for us to the glory of God.

He is the answer; yes, to all our legitimate prayer requests he never says no and God is not a liar, he is not like human beings who lie at the drop of a hat. Your prayer if it is in line with a promise, then it is yours if you pray for it and don’t give up; and you give thanks and praise to God for this is the means by which your prayers will arrive safely to you, Praise, and thanks to God strengthens your angel sent with your answer. Now begin praising God for what you asked for in line with his promises.

Amen
