kuwang man sa buhat og paningkamot ,need to exert more effort para ma answer na ang prayers

[alwin]

igon ani jud siguro TS, dili ta makaingon nga wala ma answer ang imo prayers,
pero naa sad moabot nga grasya or something good sa imo nga wala nimo damha,
mao nay alternative ways nga nitabang siya pero sa lain nga paagi!
ubanan sa imong kakugi ug paningkamot, aron makab-ot ang imong tingosbawan,
niining kalibutan nga puno sa walog sa luhaan!

Why prayers are sometimes unanswered?

Many times in the experience of those who pray faithfully, God does not say, "No," but, "Wait." There is a proper timing for answered prayer. Sometimes God needs to wait until we are ready for the answer, or perhaps others need to be made ready. Sometimes a delay is necessary to fit into God's overall program. Daniel learned that lesson.

For sixty years Daniel prayed for the return of Israel to Jerusalem, for the rebuilding of the city of God which lay in ruins. It seemed that there was no answer from God. Then Daniel discovered the word of the Lord to Jeremiah, which had said that there would be a wait of seventy years before the captives of Israel could return to their city (Jer. 29:10). With this information, Daniel went to the Lord in fervent prayer. His prayer is one of the great prayers of Scripture (Dan. 9:3-19). When Daniel began to pray, about sixty-eight of the seventy years had already passed. In answer to Daniel's prayer — and in keeping with God's timetable — the Book of Ezra records the return of Israel to its ancient land and capital city. So delay in answering prayer does not mean that God has not heard.

I know a godly Christian family that had a wayward son. For many years they prayed for that boy, but there was no answer. Long after the parents had gone to glory, God wonderfully touched that son and restored him to Himself. The prayers were answered, but in God's time. God is never late and never early in answering prayer.

Agree,

then dili pud tingale kaayo maayo ng mag-ampo lang ta
tungod kay naa tay pangayoon,
