Chapter 5: hindrance to effective intercession.
I will be sharing from James 4:3
Ye ask and receive not because ye ask amiss, that ye may consume it upon your lusts.Notice carefully why God sometimes does not answer prayer, and what is meant by wrong motives. God does not always give us what we ask for because, if He did, it would only make us more selfish, and worse in every way. A desire for selfish pleasure is often the reason why people ask for things. We should not blame God if He does not give them. God is not like some foolish parents who give whatever a child wants whether it is good for him or not. Let us open our hearts to God and sincerely pray as He wants us to pray
Psalms 139:23-24
23Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts:
24And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting
We most pray with the right motives.
Praying with a wrong motive is a very bad hindrance to us believers let us search our hearts and pray with right intention
