Answered Prayers

Zechariah 3:7 GNBDC:
the Lord Almighty had said: “If you obey my laws and perform the duties I have assigned to you, then you will continue to be in charge of my Temple and its courts, and I will hear your prayers, just as I hear the prayers of the angels who are in my presence.

You need answers to prayers? You want a change of status or a change of fortunes? The prescription is as stated in our extract today: "if you will obey my laws". Sounds simple yet this is the most difficult for us as human beings. We rebel against authority, we love having our way. Power, position and possessions are the greatest assurances of our success and "arrival". We measure our greatness by the things God considers the least and then we wonder why our lives lack drive, conviction and guidance. It is not really about what you are doing now; it is about how you do whatever it is you are doing now and who has asked you to do it.

The verse above says: if you obey my voice and perform the duties I have assigned to you........ . Who's your guiding inspiration? What's your motivating factor? What/Who drives you? Who's giving you your present assignments and pursuits? Remember, God is not rewarding activity; he's rewarding our pursuit of His purpose. He's the One whose opinion counts at the end of the day and whose opinion must be sought if our lives would count at the end of our life's journey.

Make the consultation today: seek God and His purpose for your life. Life is not truly lived until it is directed in the path of its most useful purpose by the same God who created it. His time of favour is here
