Evangelist Talks Trusting Jesus When Prayers Aren’t Answered
By Movieguide® Contributor
Evangelist Nick Vujicic is urging people to “give Jesus the key to your heart.”
“Sometimes what you are praying for doesn’t come true,” he said during an episode of TBN’s PRAISE. “And the bottom line is this: if anyone tells you different, they’re lying. Because there are many times where God says no. There are many times where we want something and — you know my dad, right? He died of cancer. We prayed for healing. Arms and legs didn’t come.”
Vujicic continued, “But the beautiful thing about this is the big question that God asks everyone: ‘Do you trust Me? I sent my Son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross for your sins. He raised Himself from the grave. I will raise you when you die. Our treasure is not here on earth. Our treasures are up there. And until that day, I am going to be with you,’ says God. ‘I will carry you when you cannot walk. I will heal you along the way. Maybe not all the physical ailments will disappear. But I will give you all the strength that you need. My grace is sufficient and I’m with you and I’ll never leave you.’”
“That may be the very question God’s asking you today,” he said. “Have you said yes to Jesus today? Give Jesus the key to your heart. Say, ‘God, take of me. Take my brokenness, take my mind, take my heart, take my sins. I don’t want to depend on my strength and my intellect anymore. I want you into my life. Please change me, mold me.’”

Vujicic recently spoke to the Christian Post about recentering faith and returning to the fundamentals of Christianity.
“I think we need to repent. I think we need to unify, and we need to be brought into a posture of humility, and while the window is open, we must choose to repent, or otherwise, I really believe that we may see the hand of God’s protection be completely removed from our country where we’ll see jackhammering of concrete so that finally the heavenly rain can touch the soil, because we’re pretty much concreted up right now,” he said.
