This is the [remarkable degree of] confidence which we [as believers are entitled to] have before Him: that if we ask anything according to His will, [that is, consistent with His plan and purpose] He hears us. And if we know [for a fact, as indeed we do] that He hears and listens to us in whatever we ask, we [also] know [with settled and absolute knowledge] that we have [granted to us] the requests which we have asked from Him. If anyone sees his brother committing a sin that does not lead to death, he will pray and ask [on the believer’s behalf] and God will for him give life to those whose sin is not leading to death. There is a sin that leads to death; I do not say that one should pray for this [kind of sin]. All wrongdoing is sin, and there is sin that does not lead to death [one can repent of it and be forgiven]. We know [with confidence] that anyone born of God does not habitually sin; but He (Jesus) who was born of God [carefully] keeps and protects him, and the evil one does not touch him.

“No” is not the easiest thing to hear when you were expecting to hear “Yes.” In this plan, you will learn to change your perspective on when God’s response to your prayer is “No.” This plan will help you discover that God's "no" was by design.
Joyce Meyer once wrote that “every day is a gift from God. Learn to focus on the Giver and enjoy the gift!” What gift do you hope to receive from God? These guided audio meditations will help you find the courage to ask, the determination to knock, and the patience to wait for the gift of God's answer. Discovering the gift of your divine purpose: to pursue and enjoy God!
This reading plan is designed to challenge the boundaries that culture, your circumstances, and beliefs have set on God. It is also about taking the limits off of your faith so that you can experience the miraculous love of an Untamable God.
When we consider the concept of believing God, on the surface it sounds pretty simple. Just believe, right? If we are honest though, believing is the start, but there are some prayers that seem to be deferred in getting answered. In this devotional we will discuss the pathway from belief to faith.
