Matthew 9:27-31

27As Jesus passed on from there, two blind men followed Him, shouting loudly, Have pity and mercy on us, Son of David!
28 When He reached the house and went in, the blind men came to Him, and Jesus said to them, Do you believe that I am able to do this? They said to Him, Yes, Lord.
29 Then He touched their eyes, saying, According to your faith and trust and reliance [on the power invested in Me] be it done to you;
30 And their eyes were opened. And Jesus earnestly and sternly charged them, See that you let no one know about this.
31 But they went off and blazed and spread His fame abroad throughout that whole district.

People often don't understand why answers to their prayers are sometimes not forthcoming, it's so important you exercise great faith else your prayers will get no response.

The Lord respond to our prayers or request according to our faith, if you don't have enough faith then your prayer or request will be delay.

Jesus did not respond when the two blind men first ask for miracle, he went into the house. The men followed him because they have Faith in Jesus and believe that Jesus can heal them. Jesus asked them if they believed he could heal them, they said "yes, Lord" He touched them and their eyes were open.

If the blind men went away without following Jesus they could have miss their healing (miracle).
These men exhibited great faith and they saw the results, with faith mountains can be moved.
Your request will be done according to your faith.

How do you exercise your faith.?
Faith is very important in the life of a Christian. You must have faith in God in everything you ask of him.

God help us all. Amen

I believe people who lack faith do not have deep root in the word of God. For it is clear that faith cometh by hearing and hearing the word of God and without faith it is impossible to please God.
