Now faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. Faith is now. It is not in the future. Hope is in the future. Faith is not in the past either although faith is based upon what I have said in the past. Faith is appropriating what I have said and believing and receiving those truths right now.
When you pray, pray believing and receiving in that very moment. This truth is why My friend Paul exhorted all believers to pray and make their requests known with thanksgiving. It delights Me when you thank Me ahead of time for answering your prayer even though the answer does not manifest itself right away.
Remember I heard Daniel's prayer the moment he set his heart to pray. He did not see the answer right away because there was intense warfare in the second heaven. If you pray anything according to My will, you can have strong confidence that I not only hear your prayers but I am about answering those prayers. Thank Me today for hearing your requests and for answering your prayers.
