We pray for a lot of things, we strive to achieve, we try to get things done in our lives and make sure they come to pass. No matter how we want it, it cannot fall from heaven. God will certainly send a man to give you whatever you are looking for. God cannot come down to do it. Not that it is hard for God to do it in His own way but He looks for a man who has what you are praying for. By His power He directs the person to cross your path for your prayer point to be answered.
Most of your prayers must have been answered but you were not sensitive enough to know the man God had sent your way. Due to your attitude they left you the way they met you. Let me show you.
Genesis 18: 2 it says, “So he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold, three men were standing by him ……..”.
The three men were sent from God to bless Abraham to bear a son. Remember in Genesis 18:1, God had showed Abraham in a vision that he would have visitors. They were not just visitors but the carriers of the manifestation of his prayer for Isaac to come. The point I am making is that, even when God had promised Abraham a son, He still sent men to enforce the blessing.
Abraham was sensitive to their visit that was why he gave them the best entertainment ever. They were angels in human form who were on an assignment. After the well larvished buffet they were pleased to prophetically pronounce that his wife Sarah will surely a bear a son (Genesis 18:10).
How do you treat strangers when they come to you? How do you interact with people? How do you attend to visitors when you meet them? How do you react when you see the black or white gender? You never can tell when the man God had sent to you will come. They can come in various forms. They are destiny helpers. Show them love, gratitude and satisfy them no matter how little.
Some people you came across in life must have been designed to help you but due to your insensitivity or offensive nature they left without helping your destiny.
Try as much as possible to pray for yourself. Pray that those people God has sent you to locate you in a hurry. Position yourself to be sensitive when you see or meet them. The man God sent to answer your prayer is already on his way, open your eyes to connect. Shalom.
Exactly my point, too. We need to work towards our goals as well. With God’s help.

God always works through man and He may also send His angels in form of men. He would never come and do what He had already empowered us to do. Thanks for sharing.

I believe so much in divine helpers and I also believe God is still in the business of answering prayers. He says if there’s a man that can pray, there’s a God that can answer. Oftentimes, we loose faith at the peak of our breakthrough but that doesn’t stop God for reaching out to us over and over again. Great post.

Your post are always so insightful. I’ve always believed that if there’s one thing I could take from the bible, it’s that God is love. I try to always make people feel welcomed and loved because of that.
I hope you had a wonderful thanksgiving.

Excellent post. God works through vessels. I like how you emphasised on attitudes. Some people have lost answers to their prayers because of bad manners and tight face nature. The person we sit next to on our commute to work might have the information that will led to something we have been praying for for years. A little hello can unlock those closed gates. Praying we always remember this and act accordingly. Blessings!
