When do we stop praying for something we are wishing for? Is there a time limit to our prayers so that we will know that God's answer is, No?
With this dilemma, this Bible verse comes to mind, "You pray for something and you do not get it because you pray with the wrong motive of indulging your pleasures" (James 4:3).
We must be careful then of what we pray for because the Lord sees through our hearts and our minds and if we are asking for something that will only benefit ourselves then His answer will be, "No" even if we crucify ourselves on a cross.

When the answer to your prayer is, "No", there must be a reason why I refused to give in to your pressure of prayers, novenas and fasting. Sometimes I yield to your wishes for you to experience why I didn't like to grant your wishes at first. Regrettably, the lesson will be painful for you and others in the end.
You should always consider that My perspective is wider and eternal than yours, so entrust every thing to Me so you won't have regrets later on.
