Ok,

Let me show you how to get your prayers answered..

First, if you are just water baptized and religious, and have been told that the water washed away your sin..... and you believe this....
You've been told a lie.
It didnt, and you're not forgiven yet.
So, you have to do this.... Jesus said..."you MUST be born again".. and that is a Spiritual Birth, performed by the Holy Spirit of God, and the city water supply is not involved.

Listen..

"God is A Spirit", and you have a spirit in you, that is separated from God, until He resolves this for you....= And to be born again, is to become Spiritually Joined to God., forever., as "in Christ" and "one with God".
How do to that?
Well, you can't do that for yourself, or by water.... but if you will go to Jesus, by Faith, believing, then God will see this faith in your heart, and He will give you "the Gift of Salvation" and the "gift of Righteousness".... and you will be born again by the the Holy Spirit.

Now, if you have done that, then you are going to need your prayers answered, because in Life, .. stuff happens, and a lot of it, is not good.

Here is how to get them answered.

A.) Stop doing what is keeping them from being answered.

That's it.

Its really that simple, and its only one thing, and you have to do it.

Reader, the reason your prayers are not answered, is because you dont understand or believe that its God's WILL to answer your prayers.
See.....It's His own WILL, to answer your prayers. Its God's WILL, to answer your prayers.
So, learn that, right now, and believe it.
Its a MUST DO.

Next, you are playing a religious game that is.....>"if im good enough"... then God will help me.
And .....No He wont.

He will not answer your prayers, when you are trying to earn them by trying to be good. Nor will he save you to begin with, if you are trying to be good, and that includes, trying to keep commandments, or trying to stop sinning.
God does not respond to you, when you try to get Him to respond to you, by YOU BEHAVIOR and your SELF EFFORT.

That's a fact of CHRISTianity.

Listen Reader,
God does not save you to begin with, because you are worthy of His Salvation.
And God does not bless you, or answer your prayers, specifically because you are doing good, and trying your best.
Here is a reality check for you... = Trying to be like Christ, does not move God into your world of needs.

So, if you are that one, who is trying to earn God's approval, and earn God's blessing, and earn God's answered prayers, by your behavior and your lifestyle.... then stop right now as you are wasting your time.

Now.....Lets solve this issue , and then you'll see your needs met.

1.) Without FAITH, it is impossible to please God.

A.) Without Faith, you'll get NOTHING... .no salvation, no answered prayers.

But im not talking about Faith in God.... So, hold on...,,, Keep reading..

So, Let me show you the FAITH you have to UNDERSTAND and BELIEVE... that get's God to respond .

Its this..

"God SEES the Righteous, (His Eyes are on the Righteous)..... and His Ears are open to their Prayers".

Now that verse can be found in 1 Peter and in the Psalms, as Peter quoted it.

Now, how does that work? What "righteousness" is that referring to ???? That God "SEES"...?

Its very simple.
If you are born again, you have become "MADE RIGHTEOUS", in God's Eyes......forever.
And now YOU have to believe it. You have to BELIEVE that God, through Christ, has given you """ the gift of Righteousness"", and you are now '"made righteous", having become...."THE Righteousness of God...>in Christ"... = '"A New Creation.""

See that ?
That is where you have to EXIST with your FAITH. Its what you have to BELIEVE. And once you do, then you are now operating as "walking in the Spirit", and from this place of REAL Faith, God will respond to you, when you need a prayer answered.

You have to go to God... "BOLDLY"... "BOLDLY" you enter into the Throne of Grace and you find GOD, as your ABBA, as your DADDY, as your FATHER, who is waiting and ready to help., and you can't do that, unless you BELIEVE you have become "made righteous"..
You can't go there, trying to EARN it, or trying to work for it.
You have to go there, KNOWING that you are "made righteous", and knowing that you are "One with God"...
This has to be your FAITH, so that from this place, God will answer your prayer.
You have to SEE YOURSELF as God sees you, and not as you see you.
And How does God see you, if you are born again?
He sees you as "MADE RIGHTEOUS"... = FOREVER.

Reader, if you are born again, you are GOD's.
You belong to Him. He has paid for your eternal life with the Holy Blood of Jesus.
God has given Jesus as your
BLOOD sacrifice so that by the Cross of Christ, you can be spiritually restored to God... FOREVER.
Understand?

And He will help you, but you have to come to God, with that right FAITH, regarding who you have become, as a new creation, "in Christ".
You have to get that MIND and KEEP IT.

God will answer you when you BELIEVE that you are what God says you are, and you dont try to earn that,..... as God's favor, and God's Salvation, and answered prayers, are always God's Mercy and Love, given FREELY... FREELY. And they are yours because God has made you righteous
"IN Christ">.., and God keeps you righteous by the SAME BLOOD, Death, and Resurrection, of Jesus THE Lord.

Now....BELIEVE THIS, .. = is knowing who you have become "in Christ", and then go to God with your prayers.

That's how you get them answered.

Yes, there are requirements involved, regarding God's dealings.

See,,,,, you want it, according to your opinions and POV, and God is not in that Headgame..... @quietthinker

So, when you need a prayer answered, there is a method and means and way.

So understand, = things with God, are according to how He will have it, and as your opinion is your god, @quietthinker , according to all your negative and never helpful to anyone... posts,.... just remember what i told you.

is it hard to kick against the pricks of the generosity of God?

Isaiah 55:1
"Come, all you who are thirsty, come to the waters; and you who have no money, come, buy and eat! Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost. Why spend money on what is not bread, and your labor on what does not satisfy?

Revelation 21:6
And he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning andthe end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment.

You posted another disconnected statement, that isn't connected to the Thread's topic or teaching.

Have you every considered why you are unable to post anything on the Forum, that even tries to be helpful to anyone?

You really should try to change that situation @quietthinker.

I realize that you live in a world of sarcasm and negativism, according to the majority of your posts... but, Christianity is actually the opposite.

See, if you can figure out why.

Your perceptions Behold. My posts are not disconnected. It is that you do not understand them.....and you do not ask any questions......instead, you trot out some pre-chewed prattle which folk have heard all their lives. It's nothing but a decoy from the Glory of God in Jesus.

Keep kidding yourself.

Now here is the situation...

When a believer tries to earn God's favor, then God does not give it.

You can read the account of "CAIN" as found in Genesis, to begin to understand why coming to God with self effort, is a 100% FAIL rate.

This "favor" of God, is based on God's Mercy, and never is it offered to self effort.

And just as Salvation is offered only through the Cross..... .... its also the same regarding getting prayers answered.
The Believer is to understand what it means to be "made righteous" and from that renewed mind, they approach God.

If the person is trying to be accepted by God, and this is the "sin confessing".. "im trying to repent a lot".... type of = confused believer... they are not coming to God as God requires, and that is why their prayers hit the ceiling and bounce into neverland.

Your approach Behold, is that God will view you favourably when one has the right theological understanding. This view of yours is plastered through all your posts.

The fact is that people have not gained a greater awareness/ understanding of the Jesus they are supposed to believe in but they have gained a greater understanding of your opinion re what they need to do to get whatever they want from God.

What you are peddling is a works trip dressed up to look like grace. The very thing Paul fought against. Its focus is what one does.....ie, religious doings.

God is sovereign, he cannot be manipulated by us into doing what we want.

The vast majority of Christians alive today are in third world countries facing real economic and political/religious persecution.

If there prayers would change their situation they would not be suffering.
Romans 8:28 All things work together for the good of those who are called according to God's purpose.
That is literal All things, the nasty things as well as the good things, like,e Job, we are to thank and praise God .
