Devotional MONDAY, OCTOBER 4TH, 2010 Day 2
Delay is Not Denial
- Luke 18:1-8 ~ 1 One day Jesus told his disciples a story to show that they should always pray and never give up. 2 “There was a judge in a certain city,” he said, “who neither feared God nor cared about people. 3 A widow of that city came to him repeatedly, saying, ‘Give me justice in this dispute with my enemy.’ 4 The judge ignored her for a while, but finally he said to himself, ‘I don’t fear God or care about people, 5 but this woman is driving me crazy. I’m going to see that she gets justice, because she is wearing me out with her constant requests!’” 6 Then the Lord said, “Learn a lesson from this unjust judge. 7 Even he rendered a just decision in the end. So don’t you think God will surely give justice to his chosen people who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? 8 I tell you, he will grant justice to them quickly! But when the Son of Man[a] returns, how many will he find on the earth who have faith?”
Many people give up too easily in prayer. When they don't see the answer almost immediately, they quit. You may say, "God knows my need. Why doesn't He just give it to me, instead of playing games?"
Whether you agree with God's ways, or not: God is still in charge and makes the rules -- not you. So, it does you no good to argue or complain. It is better to line up with God than to fight against His plan. Besides, in reality, God's ways are perfect. It is just that we are often too immature and ignorant to understand all God is doing.
Scripture has many examples of people pressing in and receiving answers to prayer. We should never be quitters when it comes to prayer. It is God's will to answer your prayers. He is the One who told you to pray. God actually delights in answering your prayers.
"Then why are there so many delays?" one might ask.
There is an enemy, the devil, who hates you and is against you receiving your answer from God.
Second, some prayers involve other people, and God does not force people to do His will, but works with them patiently so they can see and do the right thing willingly. This takes time.
Third, there are things that God is working in you while you are persevering in prayer. God's plan is for you to grow up spiritually. God wants to enlarge your faith and encourage you to develop a closer relationship with Him. If every answer always came immediately, would you really press in and spend time drawing closer to God and studying His Word?
Don't despair when you pray. Keep on praying in faith as long as you are praying according to God's Word. A delay, even a very long one, does not mean that God is saying no to your request.
Prayer:
Dear God ~ Thank you that we have your Word to teach us how to pray. Help us to press on when we think that you haven’t heard us. We know that you are constantly working in our lives and building us into godly women and men. Thank you for hearing our prayers.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen
