Many times, when Christians don’t get the things they prayed for, they blame God when they shouldn't. Instead of blaming God, the correct action should be to examine yourself and check if you are believing (i.e. exercising your faith) right or wrong.

If you have ever prayed or asked the Lord for particular things in the place of prayer and you didn’t or still haven’t received what you prayed for, it is often because you were not exercising your faith the correct way.

God has laid out what to do in order to walk in the miraculous and you can get deliverance, blessings and whatever you need for life and godliness in the word of God if you will search the scriptures. It is not how strong you believe that determines what you get in some cases, but whether you are believing right or wrong.

For example, millions of people believed in the existence of God before they died and if you told them otherwise they would fight you but they are in hell today. There were lots of people that believed Jesus Christ is the son of God, they believed it STRONGLY and yet they died as sinners and they've gone to Hell because they didn't believe biblically. Biblical faith requires that you believe the spoken or written word of God and do a corresponding action in line with that word e.g. keep confessing it as your divine outcome.

PRAYER: Lord, deliver me from wrong believing today. I refuse to join the believers that believe wrong and blame it on you in Jesus’ name. Amen.
