In the kingdom of God, all promises are kept. This is because God is a faithful God (Hebrews 10:23). He has the capacity to fulfil and carry out His promises. So, whenever our prayers are not answered, we can then be sure that it is not God’s fault but ours. The lapses always come from us.
In the Scripture for today, the Psalmist said that, if he allowed iniquity in his heart, the Lord would not hear him. It is iniquity in the heart that blocks our access to God. In Isaiah 59:1-2, we are told that the hand of the Lord is not short that it cannot deliver us but iniquity has denied us access.
Iniquity in the original meaning is a heart with condemnation. It’s a heart with the guilt of sin. God’s word tells us that the righteous is as bold as lion (Prov. 28:1). Jesus shed His blood so that through it, our hearts can be purged and cleansed (Hebrews 9:22). Please, accept by faith the work of the Blood of Jesus over your heart.
Friend, it is important that you ask God for mercy and accept His mercy. He is a merciful God (Rom. 8:1) Purge your heart and make it free to receive from God and He will always answer your prayers. Peace!
Prayer: Lord, let the blood of Jesus clean my heart totally
“THE GRACE OF GOD HAS GIVEN US MERCY BEFORE GOD”.
