God's 3 answers to your prayers

Everyday and every moment that I have lived, I've discovered from Bible and my own experiences that God loves to answer our prayers. He always listen carefully about our dreams, our desires and our feelings , but sometimes even when we can't see an answer, God is working on it.

"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.  For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened. Which of you, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone?  Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake?  If you, then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask him!"
Matthew 7:7-11
It exist for me 3 God's answers to our prayers:

1. Yes
This is our favorite response, we love when God give us what we were praying, sometimes immediately. We haven't closed our eyes and when we see, all the things that we were expected comes so fast that we didn't see when it happened. When this happens we should be humble and grateful, God will see our heart and he will see if we love and honor him at all times. 


2. Not Yet
Sometimes we would pray one million times about the same things. We could ask God about the same once again, but we will not see answer. But this doesn't mean that God will not give us what we are praying, he just knows better than us that we are not prepared to receive the response. The Lord works with us to prepare ourselves to receive his promises. Our task is to have patience and trust in God. In some cases, we must wait until the stroke of midnight for his answer to come.

3. I have something better in mind 
This is the most difficul answer of the three. Sometimes God give us a "Not" of answer, and when it happens we feel that our world is coming down. But I have something for you, when this happens it is because your King has better plans for you. Immediate answers to prayer: You want them. I want them. But God simply does not always work that way. And to get his best, we must be patient and start believing that everything that happens in our lives has a purpose. When you don't like the answer that God gave you, pray without stopping and asking the Lord to heal your heart and give you the confidence and assurance that whatever comes will be better that you had planned.

"Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this: He will make your righteous reward shine like the dawn, your vindication like the noonday sun. Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him; do not fret when people succeed in their ways, when they carry out their wicked schemes. Refrain from anger and turn from wrath; do not fret—it leads only to evil". Psalm 37:3-8

Remember that God love you, and he only wants the best for his sons.   Remain Silent and wait patiently are the most difficult steps, but will bring the best rewards. God doesn't have our Schedule, let alone work the way we want. What would this world if God would give us everything we want and at the time we want, probably the world had ended. We must understand that God is perfect and we love above all things, he wants the best for our lives. God listen every word you say, he will never leave you alone, just learn to trust him. He doesn't want simpler things for their children, he want to give us the best. We just have to trust him, do the good, delight in his Word, charges on your way, be silent and listen. We just have to trust him, do good, delight in his Word, entrust in his ways,  keep quiet, listen and be patient.
