When you say, “I pray in Jesus’ name, Amen”, you’re really saying “I pray in God’s will”. God’s will is righteous, perfect, and true. Since it is absolutely good, we should be saying it with gratitude. The more you trust Him and His will, the less doubt and worry will distract you. Have faith in the powerful name of Jesus!

1 Thessalonians 5:18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

Jesus Christ died for all, but not all choose to believe in Him. So really, Jesus Christ died for those who do believe in Him. The truth of His sacrifice really is very much justified for the faithful. Still, there are others who choose not to believe. Nevertheless, Christ died for them. Strive to show His grace and mercy at all times because you could be the only believer an unbeliever or doubtful person will listen to.

1 Timothy 4:10 That is why we labor and strive, because we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Savior of all people, and especially of those who believe.

John 20:31 But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.

Matthew 10:39 Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it.

Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.

The LORD never stops refining you. Sometimes you’re not aware of it, sometimes you are. The more refined you are, the more you’ll be aware of it. You’ll get better and better at believing His hand was always on you and on your situation. Faith only requires your humility, trust, and patience. If you can give Him all that, you’ll see more answered prayers than not, even during those times it hurt to be chiseled at.
