What you must do to get your prayers answered

Maybe you have prayed over and over again and wondered why God never heard your prayers and why you never got an answer. The seed that fell on good ground, and people were truly converted, born again, could now call God, Father, truly pray "in Jesus name" AND must do so, see their prayers answered and "brought forth fruit"  "are they that hear the word, the full gospel "how Christ died for our sins, was buried, rose again and was seen by hundreds" and "understand it"

and "are converted" Matt 13:13, 14, 15,19,23,

The reason is that many have never personally heard and understood the gospel and received Christ as their own Savior. To receive answers to prayer, a person must first of all be "born again". He must have a sacrifice, Jesus, the Lamb of God, before he can come into God's presence. Heb. 10:19-20 says, "Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter the holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh." God invites us to "come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need" (Heb. 4:16). But we do not come without the blood, without having claimed Christ's blood to cleanse us, to allow us to stand in the presence of a holy God.

Many are going to say when they stand before God, "Haven't we done many wonderful  works in Thy name, haven't we cast out demons in Thy name" and He will say, "depart from me I never knew you" Matt 7:22-23. They were trusting in what they did to get them to heaven. We must "understand" and trust and expect to get into heaven because "Christ died for our sins, paid our debt in full, rose again and was seen by hundreds" to get to heaven. Did you understand that and trust God to save you because of that when you joined the church? If not, tell God right now, that you now understand what the Lord Jesus did for YOUR sins and want to receive and trust Him personally as your  Savior. I have seen scores who thought they were saved, come to this very place in life and get truly get saved. PLEASE write me and tell me about it  if you prayed to receive the Lord Jesus just now. I LOVE YOU DEAR FRIEND.

The place of the incense- where to get prayers answered

One of the first lessons about prayer from the altar of incense is the place of prayer. God said, "And thou shalt put it before the veil that is by the ark of the testimony, before the mercy seat that is over the testimony, where I will meet with thee:

(Ex. 30:6). This, we know, was in the holy place just before the veil which stood between the holy place and the Holy of Holies where God dwelt with His people. To offer the incense the priest had to be inside the holy place at the place of worship.

There are two prerequisites for anyone coming into the holy place and to the altar of incense. First, he had to go to the brazen altar where the animal was slain and the blood shed. The brazen altar, the place of sacrifice, was the picture of Calvary and of Christ suffering, dying and shedding His blood for our sins. No one dared enter the holy place without the blood having been shed. Today this means that anyone who wants to pray must first of all be sure that he has been to Calvary, where by faith he has offered Christ as his Savior, as his Substitute and sacrifice for sins. He must claim Christ's blood to cleanse him from all sin before he can ever come into God's presence. He must believe Christ suffered and died for his sins, was buried, (proof he was dead) rose again and was seen by hundreds (proof He was alive). An unsaved person has no access, no right, to come into God's presence in prayer and expect anything. The first prerequisite, then, is that a person must be saved , be born again. He must have sacrificed the Lamb of God for himself (when he claimed Jesus as his personal Savior by faith.

When a person says, "I never see wonderful answers to my prayer, I question if they are truly born again. To God be the glory but Celeste and I have seen hundreds if not thousands of wonderful and miraculous answers to prayer and so have millions of other Christians. We all need a good Spiritual check up. Here is a good place to begin.

I look forward to see YOU in heaven. Are you sure I will? ABC Sumner

The altar of incense shows why prayers are not answered

The New Testament also uses incense to picture prayer. In Rev. 5:8, "The four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the lamb, having everyone of them harps, and golden vials (censers) full of odors (incense), which are the prayers of saints." Here the incense is stated to be prayers, and not just a picture of prayer.
 
Rev. 8:3-4 reads,
"And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne. And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel's hand."
 
The smoke of the incense was offered with the saints prayers, and the two came together before God. Not only is incense a picture of prayer here, but the two are aligned. They are given as one and the same thing in Rev. 5:8. Incense, then, speaks of prayer ascending up before God, certainly a sweet smell to Him.
 
The altar of incense teaches us much about prayer. Here we can find out how to get our prayers answered. Many people never get their prayers answered; the tabernacle can show us why this is true. There are more instructions and information about prayer in the altar of incense than in any other place in the Bible. II you want to know how to get your prayers answered and what may be hindering your prayers, you can find the answer at the tabernacle and at the altar of incense. Stay with us and read every lesson for wonderful teaching on prayer and getting your prayers answered.
