Answered Prayer, Relying on God’s Wisdom and Timing
God answers prayer. He doesn’t answer the way we think or the way we want Him to answer but He answers. Our calling is to submit to His will. I am reminded when Jesus prayed in the Garden of Gethsemane: “And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed, saying, “My Father, […]

MAN’S DIFFICULTY CONCERNING PRAYER. ‘—and not to faint.’—ST. LUKE xviii. 1. “There are some who would argue for prayer, not on the ground of any possible […]

The answer is found at the beginning of this chapter. This was exceedingly “evil” (the same word in Hebrew-ra’ah- is used as […]
