God Answers Prayer

God gives direction in prayer 

MT 21:3

If anyone says anything to you, say that the Lord has need of them, and he will send them right away."

MT 21:

“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ it will happen. 22 If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer.” 23When Jesus returned to the temple courts and began to teach, the chief priests and elders of the people came up to Him. “By what authority are You doing these things?” they asked. “And who gave You this authority?”…

• God has given us the right to prayer
• He has given men and women authority to speak  and see things move and change. 
• Prayer is so unique it cannot be dictated 
• Even though the Pharisees prayed; Jesus prayed and things happen according to what God wanted. For example he prayed in the Garden for the cup to pass but God did not give him permission so he completed the will of the Father. 
•  We know the Pharisees were not in a good position with God. They were in a good place with the people but in order to see the mountains moved it takes being in a good place with God. 

Praise
