Your Prayers Are Already Answered (& Now You Must Trust In His Divine Timing)

Whenever we find ourselves praying—whether for financial provision, restored health, healing, the love we seek, or happiness within our careers—there’s often an element within us that doubts the possibility of that prayer being answered. Karin Hadadan, author of the God-filled book Beauty in the Stillness, explores this sentiment of doubt that follows prayer and emphasizes our need to trust God’s divine plan.

While we whisper to God to provide what we seek, the flame of trust flickers, never fully illuminating our hearts. We typically pray with a future orientation, believing that what we desire may come at some distant point in time.

Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.

Mark 11:24

When we shift the tense of our prayers from future-state to present-tense, our faith is immediately heightened. It transforms our belief system from hoping we might receive to believing we already have.

The challenge then becomes remembering God’s character, will, and timing, especially when impatience, frustration, or confusion arise. Our role in prayer is beautifully simple—ask for what we need and want, surrender to God’s plan, and maintain faith throughout the journey with absolute certainty.

Each time you pray, believe that what you’re asking for is already on its way to you. In moments of doubt, ask God to strengthen your faith and provide clarity. Each prayer has already been answered in the spiritual realm, and the desires aligned with God’s will were placed in your heart because they’re already yours to receive.
