When a person becomes born again, he or she will go through trials in life. A lot of times we want our answer to prayer immediately. We get discouraged when our prayer isn't answered right away or there is a long delay. The Christian life is a growing process. We start out as babies, just as a natural child grows up. Abraham, the patriarch of our faith started out the same way. He met some roadblocks in his life, but remained faithful to God.
Our Adversary the Devil is roaring about discouraging us when there is a long delay in our prayers. By looking at the life of Abraham, we will see that although he had some delays in his life, His faith was being built up by each test.
Be encouraged! God answers your prayers!
