Audio Version
Psalm 138:3 (KJV) – In the day when I cried, thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.
Have you ever prayed and felt as though God did not answer? Or wondered if He even hears your prayers? You must know that you are not alone, many believers have faced such moments. The truth is, God always hears the cries of His own, and He promises to answer them.
However, God’s answer is not always about changing the situation instantly. Sometimes, it is about infusing you with His strength until the victory is complete. Each time you pray, divine power is released, strengthening your soul, aligning your heart with His will, and working out His purposes in your life. That strength may come as peace in the midst of anxiety, courage in the face of fear, or clarity when confusion surrounds you.
Therefore, be encouraged today, and do not give up even when it feels like nothing is changing. Delay is not denial, your prayers are not empty words, they are powerful and effective. Speak to God in the morning, in the heat of the day, and when the night is long. Pour out your heart with faith that He is listening and moving on your behalf. Push past tiredness, silence, and doubt because every word you utter before Him is seed in the ground, and in due time, it will bear fruit.
In God’s perfect time, the answer will come, sometimes suddenly, sometimes gradually, but always faithfully. Keep praying, keep trusting, and watch Him turn every petition into a testimony. Praise him Now.
Wow. This is a beautiful reminder that prayer brings strength and God’s answer always comes in His perfect time.
Hold on to this prophetic declaration from Prophet Isaiah Macwealth:
I decree, the heavens are open over you and divine answers locate you without delay, in Jesus mighty name.

India, the world’s most populous nation, is a tapestry of cultures, languages, and religions, with Hinduism as the dominant faith.
