Unanswered Prayer

If I had cherished iniquity in my heart, the Lord would not have listened.

Rather, your iniquities have been barriers between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you so that he does not hear.

“Ask, and it will be given you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened for you.

Whatever you ask for in prayer with faith, you will receive.”

Jesus said to him, “If you are able! — All things can be done for the one who believes.”

So I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask for whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we ought, but that very Spirit intercedes with sighs too deep for words.

Do not worry about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.

Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.

But ask in faith, never doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind;

You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, in order to spend what you get on your pleasures.

And this is the boldness we have in him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.
