A blind beggar cried for mercy. Jesus asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?”
He verbalized his request: “Lord, I want to see” and was healed instantly (from Luke 18:35-43).
You can tell the Lord what you really want.
“Think about particular people, particular problems, particular needs, and then pray about those things specifically and earnestly, so that we can see God’s answer and offer Him our thankful praise.”*
*John MacArthur, The MacArthur New Testament Commentary, EPHESIANS, p.381.
I made a very specific request.
I got a very specific answer.
That’s how I know God answers prayer.
Express to God exactly what you feel, what you see, what you hear, what you need.
He cares about every detail of your life. The very hairs of your head are all numbered (Matthew 10:30).
