Wrestling With Unanswered Prayer
KATHY GABLER—After a time of wrestling with unanswered prayer that hadn’t seen the slightest possibility of being answered and after asking the Lord for wisdom and council before my attitude got way out of line, the Lord spoke to me, “Stay still and stay thankful”. Those are very clear instructions. Immediately I began to think about stillness and thankfulness and Jn.14:1 “Don’t let your heart be troubled”, came to mind. Having studied it I knew it meant “don’t let your heart be agitated or tossed to and fro or perplexed with doubt” and all that is the opposite of being still. Unanswered prayers don’t get to determine the mood for the day. When the man arrived from Jairus’ house and told him not to trouble the Teacher any more because his daughter was dead, Jesus heard the man and said to Jairus, “Don’t be afraid! Just trust me, and she’ll be all right.” (Lk.8:50, TLB) Trust is the place where you don’t live by what you see or by what you hear; trust is the place where you stand on the Lord’s steady faithfulness, His unshakeable goodness, His undistracted awareness of what you need, of your prayers and when and how it will be best to answer them.

Negative Thoughts Disempower Us
On a recent Wednesday night Melissa quoted some university level research. The claim is that the typical person experiences 1200
words per minute of “self talk.” The average person subconsciously hears 1200 words a minute of self-talk going on in their mind and 1100 of those words are negative in most people. That should give us pause for thought.
Negative thoughts disempower us. They remove the productivity of positive words that we have received in the past. We must break agreement with the enemy and “let not our hearts be troubled.” If Jesus commanded us to “not let our hearts be troubled” then we have the ability to not let our hearts be troubled. He would not command us to do something we could not do.

What Are We Putting Into The Atmosphere?
What are we putting into the atmosphere? The prime reason Jesus knew that He must help the disciples reach a point of not being troubled (Jn.14:1) is because when people are troubled, they talk like they are troubled. That kind of talk is contagious. Talk that is troubled is anything but productive.

The Reason Jesus Could Say, “Trust In Me”
“Philip said to Him, Lord, show us the Father [cause us to see the Father–that is all we ask]; then we shall be satisfied. 9 Jesus replied, Have I been with all of you for so long a time, and do you not recognize and know Me yet, Philip? Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say then, Show us the Father?” (Jn.14:8-9, Amp) The reason Jesus could say, “You trust in God so you can trust in me” (14:1)–the reason He could say “If you have seen me then you have seen the Father” is because He had never misrepresented the Father in any way. That speaks of integrity, reliability and credibility and that will be displayed in one’s character and character is displayed in actions.

The Reason For The Troubling
They were soon to launch upon a new era in their lives: ministering and facing opposition, facing the world, its issues and needs without Jesus’ physical presence. They would
now be the ones 1.) dealing directly with religious opposition in all forms, 2.) dealing directly with devils in all forms and 3.) dealing directly with the great weight of human need. They would no longer be standing behind Him observing, listening as He authoritatively dealt with each person and each situation with acts of power. They are now the ones who will be speaking authoritatively and performing acts of power or the troubles will go uncontradicted and needs will continue unmet and unabated. Therefore, it is no wonder that their hearts were troubled, distressed, agitated. Yet, if our Lord commands us to not let our heart be troubled, we have the ability (through Him) to not let our heart be troubled. He would not carelessly command what we could not obey.

What A Way To Begin An Announcement
Wow, what a way to begin an announcement, “Hey, guys, I have something very important to say here but first I must ask you to not be troubled of heart.” Jesus addresses His disciples at a momentous time, on a very important occasion to communicate
to them the launching of a new era that was immediately upon them and in which they would take the lead. DO NOT let your hearts be troubled (distressed, agitated). You believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely on God; believe in and adhere to and trust in and rely also on Me. (Jn.14:1, Amp) Jesus announces His going and their total dependency upon Holy Spirit to do what He has been doing while with them.
