Most times it is difficult to see God amid the problems and challenges we find ourselves. Problems are simply defined as a situation or circumstance we encounter to bring out our creative side and the best in us. Problems are designed to help us become better and help us advance to greater levels in life.
Problems are everywhere and honestly, they don’t finish. Human beings experience problems in various forms and sizes daily and many people feel they don’t deserve to have any problems or problems that shouldn’t be a part of their daily lives. For many of us going through all sorts of hardships and problems, we can rest and fill our minds with positivity and light knowing that God is aware of all we are going through.
I know how it feels when it seems as if we can’t see God in our hardships and difficulties but I want us to know that it is not true and no matter how difficult that problem, challenges or spiritual battle might be, God knows and sees and he intends to see that you are free and rejoicing in him always.
Overcoming Deep Problems
Problems can kill our joy most times, make us hate ourselves, and even make us lose faith and hope in God. I want you to be aware that “Nobody has a perfect life, Everybody has their problems, and most people have developed the art of dealing with it in perfect ways through prayers”.
Running around and complaining is not the best road to ply when we are faced with problems. Taking it up to God in prayer is the best and the wisest thing to do as a child of God. You might feel God already knows what you are battling with and should be able to give you a solution without asking, well that is where most of us get it wrong.
God is a conversational spiritual being, meaning he likes it when we relate and talk to him through our prayers. Philippians 4 vs 6 says:
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.
Looking at the scripture above, God does not want us to be anxious for anything even though we know that there are problems and challenges we are faced with. God wants us to bring our problems to his awareness in prayer with supplication and thanksgiving. God wants us to be intentional with our conversation with him because he loves it when we do so.
God loves every one of us so much and does not want to see us suffering and wallowing in problems. It is why we must embrace the pattern and ways of praying to God every time. I want you to know that God has a great purpose for your life and it supersedes the problems and difficulties you are suffering at the moment.
Jesus can even use our problems to be of help to other people. Amid our problems, we can feel isolated, depressed, and lonely as if God has abandoned us. If you are currently feeling this way, just know that God has not left you and he hears and answers prayers.
God said in the book of Hebrews 13 vs 5:
“Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you”
Most times when I am faced with problems, I feel as though God has left me and he is not aware of what I am going through. But through this great commission, Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, I have learned to be persistent in prayers and I have learned to talk to God freely about anything that bothers me and God shows himself present and strong amid my battles. I want you to develop a rugged mindset like that of a prayer warrior because prayers are what can make you prevail and make you victorious over your problems.
As human beings, we tend to feel most times that not all things are spiritual and we don’t have to pray about everything. I want you to know that the spiritual controls the physical and every problem in this world is birthed from the spirit before we see it manifest in the physical. It is why we emulate violent prayers in MFM to attack our problems often before they see the light of day and eventually become a burden on us.
I want you to close your eyes for a few minutes and pray this prayer;
LORD SHOW ME THE ROOT OF MY PROBLEMS IN THE NAME OF JESUS.
Just one problem can birth hundreds of other problems in one’s life. If God shows you the root of your problems, you can begin addressing them in prayers till it dies off. God desires for you and me to be problems free but because we leave in a wicked and dark world, problems will continue to persist and prayer is the surest way to overcome them every time they show up in our lives.
Turning to God
Problems can be life-threatening and very painful and the best way to be an overcomer is to run to the Lord. God has never left any of his children in problems and he won’t start now. If you are not even sure of your relationship with God and you know you are deep in the rivers of sin, the truth is you are far from getting a lasting solution to most of your problems. God hates sin and he doesn’t hear the prayer of a sinner. Please I strongly advise you to give your life to him wholeheartedly today, let him be the Lord and master of your life.
Say this short prayer;
LORD, I COME TO YOU TODAY AS A SINNER, FORGIVE ME OF MY SIN AND WASH ME IN YOUR PRECIOUS BLOOD, WRITE MY NAME IN THE BOOK OF LIFE AND HELP ME LEAVE A HOLY AND FULFILLING LIFE BEGINNING FROM TODAY, IN THE NAME OF JESUS.
God bless you in the mighty name of Jesus.

Pray these prayers and the God of Elijah shall answer you by fire in the name of Jesus.

2. The stubborn problems of my life will not swallow me in the name of Jesus.
3. Foundational problems afflicting my life, die in the name of Jesus.
4. Power to crush my stubborn problems, my life is available, enter in the name of Jesus.
5. I claim victory over all the wicked problems in my life in the name of Jesus
6. My problems will not swallow me in the name of Jesus.
7. O God arise and fight my battles in the name of Jesus.
