ASK | SEEK | KNOCK | When God Doesn't Answer Your Prayers
Luke 11:5–13 | Philippians 4:6–7 (ESV)
Real Conversations Sermon Series | Pastor Robbey Smith | Redemption Church
Have you ever stopped praying because you began to wonder if God was listening? Maybe you've prayed for a struggling marriage, a prodigal child, healing from sickness, or the salvation of someone you love, but nothing seems to change.
What do you do when God doesn't answer the way you hoped?
In Luke 11:5–13, Jesus teaches us to ask, seek, and knock. But this is not a formula for getting everything we want. It is an invitation to approach our heavenly Father with boldness, persistence, and confidence in His goodness.
THE CENTRAL TRUTH:
We do not keep praying to make God good to us. We keep praying because God is already good to us.
IN THIS MESSAGE, WE DISCOVER:
Pray Boldly: God is approachable. You are not bothering God when you bring Him what is burdening you.
Pray Persistently: God invites His children to keep coming, even when answers are delayed.
Pray Confidently: Our heavenly Father knows what is good, even when His answer differs from our request.
Pray with Thanksgiving: God's peace can guard your heart even when your circumstances remain unchanged.
THE QUESTION:
If God never gives you what you've been asking for, will you still believe He is good?
Romans 8:32 reminds us that the greatest evidence of God's goodness is not answered prayer, but the gift of His Son, Jesus Christ.
Keep asking because He is Father. Keep seeking because He is worthy. Keep knocking because He is good.
