Two weeks ago today while doing my laundry I was praying to God. I had a very specific prayer request. It was for the closing of our old house. My husband and I had been praying about this for months now, but on that Monday I felt this urgency that, that house needed to be sold fast.
So while I was doing the laundry I asked God to allow the closing of our old house to be done by either the end of that week or the following week. I was explaining my reasons to Him even though I knew He already knew why. Without going into any specifics we really needed to get that old house sold and I know God understood.
That Monday afternoon while my husband was at work he sent me a chat. He told me he had just spoken to our lawyer and she wanted to know what date we wanted for the closing. Obviously I told my husband the sooner the better. I was also complete amazed at what happened. The same day I asked for prayer for the closing of our old house I was asked when I wanted to set a date for it. I remember thinking to myself “Wow God thank you”!
The following Friday which was this past Friday God answered my prayer and gave us that day for the closing of our old House. He made me wait till the end of the two weeks that I had asked for, but He did answer my prayer. When I realized what had happened, with my prayers being heard and answered with in that two week time period I was in complete amazement of my God. He does hear our prayers and He does answer them. Sometimes not as fast as we would like. Sometime as soon as we ask. But He ALWAYS answers.
Psalm 37:4 Delight thyself also in the Lord, and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
