Your Prayer is Heard...

Your Heavenly Father has not forgotten you...

"...for your prayer is heard... which will be fulfilled in their own time."
Luke 1:13, 20

Zechariah and his wife had prayed their whole married lives to have a child. Now old and well beyond child bearing years, the angel declares their miracle would take place. The Lord has heard your prayer too. 

And yet, notice the second phrase. The Lord has His timing. He is never early; He is never late. He works outside of time, He understands time, He created time, and He holds time in His hands. Often, His timing is not our timing. Still, His timing is always perfect.

Also, there are other aspects of your prayer He is working on; other pieces of the puzzle you can’t see. Other people are involved who need His touch before they can be moved into place to be a part of your answered prayer. Many times, Jesus is waiting for us to take our stance against the enemy in His name – as He told us in Luke 10:17-20. Often, we are not ready to have these prayers answered. He still has much to do to rid us of ourselves and heal our brokenness. 

Regardless, your prayer has been heard. Believe this. Your miracle is in the works and God has not stopped working on your behalf.
