STEP 5: MAKING YOUR REQUEST

 

Now is the time to make your request to God. You are in the middle of the Prayer Sandwich and Gods ears are opened. Start by stating your intention like ‘’I request some favours from you my Lord and I pray for them using the scriptures of the bible as my base as I want to remain within Jesus and Gods word and have them remain within me. Research some scriptures from the bible that relate to your request. Remember that the scriptures of the bible are Gods own words. If you pray for your requests in Gods own words then there is no way he can decline you. Following the scriptures state what you are praying for and be crystal clear. Avoid saying things like ‘’I pray for money’’. That leaves many questions open like ‘’Money for what?’’, ‘’Money from where?’’, How much do you want?’’, ‘’When do you want it?’’. Again, people just assume that God knows exactly what they want but your intention when asking for money could be to win big on a lottery ticket but if you haven’t stated that then you could receive a small amount of money from a business transaction. Therefore God has delivered your prayer request for money, albeit not the amount you desired but you did not state anything. Promise God that you will not be selfish and when he gives to you, you will give back more. Finish the request with thanking God for granting your request, even though you have not received it yet. You have requested something from God. Show him that you believe that you can and will receive it soon. In your requests, your belief is the most important and crucial thing of all.
