John 11:41b-42a
And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard me. And I know that You always hear me.”
God cannot help but hearing the prayer of an obedient child!
Jesus explains the reason why God always hears Him in John 15:10. He says, “If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father’s commands and remain in his love.”
God always hears Jesus Christ because He always obeys the Father’s commands in love. God always hears His obedient children when they pray.
Apostle John explains the reason why God answers to the prayers of His obedient children. Apostle John says in 1 John 3:22, “and receive from him anything we ask, because we obey his commands and do what pleases him.”
Thank God that it is possible for every child of God to please the Heavenly Father! Obey His commandments!!!
Obedience follows love, and prayer follows obedience. Our love for God delights to obey His commandments, obedience enables us to ask God with boldness, and God delights in the prayers of obedient children!
Loving obedience puts us where we can “ask anything in his name,” with the assurance, that “He will do it”!
