Doors opened to blessings

Recently I've really been experiencing God's blessings through prayers. Big things or small things, after a simple prayer, they get resolved smoothly.

Just as when I am amazed by this new found ability, I am also thinking what has changed in me that made this happen -- faith and obedience. I've always loved Jesus. But that love could have been only on the surface. Unless one has learnt to love through obey, that is not real love. Many times obedience meaning sacrifices and we don't like that. We'd like to have a payless love which is only a lip service. God wants to change us within and it can only be done through painful obedience. After that, blessings flood in. Prayers are only keys to open the doors.

After realizing this, Lord also told me the secret to keep the keys to continue to work. That is to ask His will, not my own will. If most of my prayers are for my own earthly benefit, that would be a misuse of power.
