* Series on Prayer: Touching Heaven*
Part3: The Five Conditions to Answered Prayer
(John 15:7,16)

All too often we approach prayer with Luke-warmness. We think that if we just occasionally make a tiny effort at praying we will yield big results and if this doesn't happen, we get upset at God.
Before you read on the Conditions to Answered Prayer, understand three (3) things:

1. God loves for us to Pray, to bring before Him those things on our hearts. 2. God always answers prayers:      No: It is wrong      Slow: The timing is not right      Yes: It is My will 3. The only prayer God will answer in a sinner's life, is the prayer that leads to salvation.

1.	1st Condition: You must have an Honest Relationship with God (vs 1-8) (Psalm 66:18)

2.	2nd Condition: You have a Forgiving Attitude toward others. (Mark 11: 24-26)

3.	3rd Condition: You must be willing to share the Results of your prayers. (Luke 6:38)

4.	4th Condition: You must believe that God will Answer your prayer. (Matthew 9: 27-31) (James 5: 16-18)

5.	5th Condition: You must pray in Jesus' Name. (John 14: 13,14) (John 15: 7,16) (John 16: 23,24)
