Why is it that two believers can pray about the same issue and come away with completely different responses and attitudes? This has to do with :
1. Our relationship with God. The Father speaks differently to the unsaved than He does to His Children. God also tailors His message to individual believers on the basis of their spiritual maturity and unique situations.
2. Our understanding of who God is. If you see God as a loving Father, you will hear His encouraging voice and accept His loving discipline. But if you see Him as a harsh, demanding God far removed from your life, then you may feel as though He expects more than you can deliver.
3. Our Attitude toward God. If we come to the Lord with a proud, rebellious nature, we will naturally not be inclined to hear His voice of authority. However, if we come with a submissive nature, we will most likely hear--and joyfully receive--His Word.
