HE STILL ANSWERS VOL. 14 NO 36 SUNDAY 6TH SEPTEMBER, 2026
The hallmark of effective communication is getting an answer, which also means feedback or reply. Oftentimes, the answer validates receiving and understanding the information requested. Similarly, God listens and answers when His children present their petitions or questions to Him.
God gave king David the word of assurance and promise about answering his call anytime of the day. “He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honour him” (Ps. 91:15). Calling God is a prerequisite to receiving an answer from Him. The truth is that God still answers prayers and requests in our contemporary world. Many people are not getting answers today because they do not call upon God, or they either ask amiss or sin is preventing their access to Him. This underscores the importance of holy and righteous living, as a child of God. The fact that God hears every prayer does not mean that He will answer all. “Behold the Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; nor His ear heavy, that it cannot hear. But your iniquities have separated you from your God; And your sins have hidden His face from you, so that He will not hear” (Isa. 59:1-2). The problem is not about hearing your requests, but your relationship status with God. Friend, are you in the right standing with God? Do you call unto Him in prayers?
Beloved, I assure you that God is not clueless about any issue, and no situation is hopeless before Him. Jesus Christ provided an answer to the case of the man who was on a spot for good thirty-eight years at the Pool of Bethesda. The man was even expecting a solution to his problem in a conventional way – getting help to be the first to jump into the Pool. However, through divine intervention, he received his healing by the Lord who listens and answers prayers. As we journey through the -ember months of this year, I beseech you to give God the utmost priority
