Do You Thank God For Unanswered Prayers?

I thank God all the time for not answeing mine. I wrote this page to tell why and how important it is. Ofcourse it is important to thank God for the answered ones as well.

"He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he." 

Deuteronomy 32:4 (KJV)

I think most of us thank God for answering our prayers. Which is really good. We really need to be appreciative for Him answering our prayers. But have you ever consider thinking God for not answering your prayers?

I thank God all the time for the prayers He don't answer because He is so good and becuase His ways are perfect I would rather have a no from Him then a yes from anyone in this world.

God has a plan for us. Somtimes what we pray for is not in His will. He may have something better for us planned then what we are praying for.

How Great Is Our God By Chris Tomlin 

I placed this one on here becuase its a good song that says how good is our God. I hope you will give this song a listen and get it for yourself!

I Can't Think Of Any Specfic Prayer I Am Thankful for Him Not Answering. 

Infact I want all my prayers answered. Why would I even be praying for them? But sometime later I may be happy one of my prayers are not answered.

Its like in the Garth Brooks song, "Thank God For Unanswered prayers". The song is called, "The Gift" which I think is a good song. He talks about a girl he use to pray God would make his. Guess God never did since he now thanks God for his unanswered prayer. I think its because he loves his wife so much more.

I hope all of you will thank God for your unanswered prayers. At least I hope you think of this page and why He might not be answering your prayer(s).

Unanswered Prayers By Garth Brooks 

Since I mentioned his song in my message, I thought I would help you to hear the song and to buy the song from Amazon if you wish.

I honestly believe that all of our prayers are answered. It's just that we may not like the answer that we get. I just have to thank God for the answer he gave because he knows best. It is his will that matters and not my own!

No - I just want my prayer answered.

    Prayer is the key that opens your day to every blessing. It also is a lock that closes the night to keep you safe while sleeping. So what you have to do is "use your key all the time." Smile! It will make you look better. Pray, it will keep you strong. Love, it will make you enjoy life.
    "I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If in my name you ask me for anything, I will do it." (John 14:13-14; see also 15:16; 16:23-24, 26)

    As i grow older each year, I am understanding that things don't always work out the way I want them to at that moment in time. (Anger and frustration soon follow.) As time passes you regret the anger and frustration, realizing things always work out for the best. Be it 1 week or 10 years later, my unanswered prayers have turned out to be amazing blessings. In bad times, my understanding of unanswered prayers keep me going, knowing that a blessing will someday follow as a result.

    Grace is receiving what we don't deserve. Mercy is not receiving what we do. Through God all things are possible. Well done lens.
