Don't pray past the answer
Don't Pray Past the Answer
Acts 12:15,16
"But Peter continued knocking; and when they opened the door and saw him, they were astonished."
The church was praying for Peter's release while Peter was standing outside the door. The answer had arrived, but they were so accustomed to praying for it that they struggled to recognize it.
Sometimes we do the same thing. We keep asking God for an opportunity while ignoring the one already present. We pray for help but resist the person He sends. We pray for direction but overlook the clear next step.
Prayer requires expectation. If you believe God answers, keep your eyes open for the answer.
Here's the challenge: Could something you've been praying for already be appearing in a form you did not expect?
Action Step: Review one ongoing prayer today and identify any recent opportunity, person, or change that might be part of God's answer.
Have an expectant and Victorious Thursday
