I have been saved for along time. I believe in God and and profess to be a Christian. I pray everyday and ask God to forgive me of my sins . I want to go to heaven when I died But it seems my prayers do not get answered and I don't know what am doing wrong. Can you'll help me to understand what God's plan for me is tell what I could be doing wrong. Thank you a concerned Christian
Hello, I understand your frustration and concern about prayers going unanswered. I have often come across the same situation and wondered the same thing. I recently came across a teaching called "Operating in the courts of heaven" by Robert Henderson. I don't believe he's a KJV person, however, the principal he teaches I believe is very profound.
He explains that we as Christians have been taught that when we pray it's like entering a battlefield, however, in reality there is a real courtroom in heaven in which we bring our prayers and petitions to.
If you think about it, there is a battle so to speak going on either in a courtroom or on the battlefield, however, the approach would be much different in each scenario.
I highly recommend that you listen to his four part CDs if you can. He also has written some books which I have ordered but not yet had a chance to read.
I myself have changed the way I pray and I'm expecting better results because of it.
Our whole Christian walk is a learning process, for sure. As a Christian for 30 + years now, one important thing I learned is that people do have their own free will, and of course God will not force people, but he can still work in their lives to a certain point.
That's what the devil wants us to think. Always remeber, Our Savior came here for the sick, He healed us, reminded us of His relationship with The Most High, called us His Brethren, reminded us of mercy, and that we need to prepare for temptation once we realize who we are, and we have a worldwide mission

I'm praying for you, God bless you.
