"And it shall
come to pass,
that before
they call, I will answer;
and while
they are yet speaking,
I will hear."
Isaiah 65:24
God's R.S.V.P.
Sometimes we
get invitations asking us to reply.
R.S.V.P. is a
French abbreviation for
"Please
Respond."
God invites us
to pray,
and He promises
to answer every one of our prayers.
Isaiah even
tells us that sometimes
God answers
even before we ask!
Although this
may seem impossible,
we must always
remember
that we pray to
a God who is able to do all things.
God knows all
our needs and wants.
Yet, He still
invites us to pray
and ask any and
all of them.
He is capable
of granting us anything
He wants for
us,
fully answering
all our petitions
according to
His good and gracious will.
However, God
does not desire to grant
His beloved
children the things that would
harm them.
So, at times He
is compelled to answer "No."
BUT . . .
He always
answers,
and always in
our best interest,
just as a
loving father will answer his child.
Sometimes
"Yes,"
Sometimes "No,"
And sometimes,
"Wait". . .
But always in
love.
May we all
learn to accept God's reply in faith
and trust in
His good will.
"Lord
Dictated Them"
