Has God ever said "No" to you? Did you feel that He had forsaken you? When we read the Bible, we see that God denied the requests of others. He did not let Moses go into the Promised Land. God refused to heal Paul's infirmity. He told His own Son "No". Did that mean that God did not love them? We know He loved them. So why would your loving Heavenly Father tell you "No"? Learn six reasons God may not answer your prayers the way that you hope.
Book Excerpt
Our Stronghold in Prayer: A Women's Class Book and Prayer Journal

Job struggled with them.
