Do you really believe in Jesus? So, take at Jesus’ promises too.

• “Is any sick among you? Let him call for the elders of the church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And *the prayer of faith* will cure the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up. And if he has committed sins, it will be forgiven him.” (Jas 5:14,15).

But, what is the prayer of the faith?

For answer this, we need to know what is faith:

• “Now faith is assurance of things hoped for, a conviction of things not seen.” (Heb 11:1).

Many people complain that their prayers aren’t answered. Nonetheless, how are we praying? As those who really believe that Jesus is with them and already gave them what is the best?

• “If you are willing and obedient, you shall eat the good of the land;” (Isa 1:19)
• “But as it is written, "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard," nor has it entered into the heart of man, "the things which God has prepared for those who love Him." (1Co 2:9).
• “Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us,” (Eph 3:20).
• “But my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” (Php 4:19)
• “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned; nor shall the flame kindle on you.” (Isa 43:2).
• “teaching them to observe all things, whatever I commanded you. And, behold, I am with you all the days until the end of the world. Amen.” (Mat 28:20).

If we look on the Creator’ words for worth of trustful, therefore we need to approach of the throne of the grace (Heb 4:16) in order to receive what He already bestowed us, and not hoping to convince Him to grant us what we wait for.

We need to pray like Jesus in this occasion:

• “Then they took away the stone where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. And I know that You hear Me always, but because of the people who stand by I said it, so that they may believe that You have sent Me.” (John 11:41,42).

See that Jesus, at no moment, cadged the Father to hear His prayer. He was confident that He was heard.

So, have a good day biding for the right thing and convinced that Jesus already conquered this for you. This already belongs to you. You only won’t receive if you are waiting for what isn’t for you.
