The promises was fulfilled, but it was delayed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Jesus Himself watches to see who truly believes. Perfect trust involves both obedience and patience. Doing God&#8217;s word and studying His word brings fruits in our lives. The only thing that can stop God is unbelief. Being Obedient God Works.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Our faith is established on your belief, really believing in the Word of God.

But, your faith in God can make you prevail against satan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Therefore it is necessary for you to hide the word deep in your heart and to water it daily with prayer so that it will grow strong within you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><b>4.<\/b> <b>Afflictions:<\/b><\/span> anything that burdens the spirit or offends the spirit.)

You can worry to much about making a living, feeding your family, clothing your children, and educating them.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">You can actually become so busy that you lock, God and His word out of your life. And there goes your faith, because it is no longer has a foundation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\"><span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><b>6.<\/b> <b>Deceitfulness :<\/b> <\/span>Having to many riches will also choke out the word of God, and stop the answers to your prayers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c7\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">&#8220;What does that mean?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">It simply means this: you are trusting your money more than you are trusting God.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c7\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">&#8220;Does this mean you can&#8217;t have money?&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">No, it means you first put your trust in GOD, and then you trust God with your money.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">That&#8217;s what tithing, giving offerings, and paying on vows you have made to God. It, demonstrates that you are trusting GOD with your money. And, believe me GOD watches to see what you do with your money and whether or not you trust Him with it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Jesus, also said, that the lust for other things will choke out with the word.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">You want other things, like : houses, cars, yachts, relationships, educations, prestige, positions, sales, and so much more, then you actually want God in your life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">He said, that you could have those things, if you seek Him first.

Anything God has planned for your life is definitely allot better than your dearest dreams. When your prayers are not answered immediately, start shouting because God has something better coming for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Sometimes people miss God&#8217;s best &#8211;because they settle for the second best. They get into the flesh and become impatient, like Abraham did. Or, they give up, like Peter did.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">He became afraid and gave up &#8212; went back where he started from. Becoming, impatient and quit waiting on God. He did not stand steadfast and wait to see the Glory of God our Lord. He did not use corresponding action of faith, he used his self will.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c7\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Delay is Not DENIED<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Don&#8217;t Miss God.

Just listen closely to Him and be willing to do whatever He tells you to do.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"c6\"><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;\">Sometimes, your answers may not arrive on the first or the second day.
