Receive Answers to Your Prayers

The Old Testament folks always had to resort to the Prophets and seers to inquire of the Lord. It wasn’t a common revelation to the people to talk directly to God in prayer and expect to receive an answer from Him.

However, when Jesus came, He made it clear to us that it was the Father’s desire to boldly and confidently talk to the Father in prayers and receive answers: “and in that day ye shall ask me nothing. Verily, verily I say unto you, 

whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in my name, He will give it to you. Hitherto, have ye asked nothing in my name: ask and ye shall receive, that your joy maybe full” (John 16:23-24).
​
The day that Jesus spoke of is not a twenty-four hour day, but a dispensation, a season, a set time in which you could make requests and receive answers to your prayers. Thanks be unto God, this is the set time. We have come into that day that Jesus was referring to. We have the privilege of being able to pray and receive answers instantly. It is the Father’s delight to answer your prayers; it is His good pleasure to give you the wonderful treasures of the kingdom (Luke12:32).
Therefore never doubt His willingness to answer you speedily when you pray. He has ordained you to receive answers to your prayers that your joy maybe full, therefore go ahead and make your request known to the Father, and He will grant you the desires of your heart.
