(This is a very sound and thorough teaching on the subject of prayer by Ed Lane from Orlando Florida. Great job on this article here Ed! P.B.)

“Ye ask, and receive not, because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.” James 4:3
“And this is the confidence that we have in him, that, if we ask any thing according to his will, he heareth us….” 1 John 5:14
While reading through the Bible over the past few years, I have been surprised to come across a substantial number of scriptures, which clearly state that God doesn’t always answer our prayers, and sometimes He doesn’t even hear them. This is the exact opposite of what most churches seem to teach these days.
You’re welcome Paul…I’m very thankful for your blog and the idea that you want to “Get it Right”. I’m forever learning and I want to be sure I have it right.
Thank You again…and God’s blessings to you and yours.
Sincerely,
Vicki

“Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside but on the inside are full of the bones of the dead and everything unclean

Hi Vicki;
Ed is a lawyer and he usually presents a very thorough argument when he opines!
