Romans 1:16-19

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek.

For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, "The just shall live by faith."

For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them.


Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

How long should we wait for an answer to prayer? It may be minutes, days, months, or even years. Perhaps we may never know the answer to a particular prayer in this life, but must wait until we meet the Lord in eternity.

Just because we do not get an answer to our prayer, it does not mean that God is not listening; sometimes the answer may be to wait. There is always an answer, one way or the other!

God Bless You!

--ANSWER TO TRIVIA QUESTION:

Q. To whose home on what street in Damascus was Saul lead?

A. home of Judas, street called Straight


Now there was a certain disciple at Damascus named Ananias; and to him the Lord said in a vision, "Ananias." And he said, "Here I am, Lord."

So the Lord said to him, "Arise and go to the street called Straight, and inquire at the house of Judas for one called Saul of Tarsus, for behold, he is praying."

Acts 9:10-11

God hears us when we pray, as he clearly heard Saul and answered him in such a wonderful way! Praise God for the courage and obedience of Ananias, who in spite of his justifiable fear, did what God asked him to do.
