God has three answers for prayer:
Yes
No
Not Yet
When we don't get the answer we anticipated, we must rely
on God's Omnitient wisdom to understand that He knows best.
Proverbs 3:5-6

A lot of times we as people don't know what is best for us.
He may tell us no to keep us out of harms way, to be safe, to meet our perfect destiny, to bring certain people into our lives, to find the truth we deserve, to fulfill our lives the way we need to be filled.

In my opinion, God sometimes tells us no because he has something better for us. =)
And if He said yes everytime, do you think you'll still call Him for help?

Because he wants us to experience the outcome of saying no and to understand that all things come from different answers!

He's still working out the details.
In bible times it took years...look at Daniel...Joseph...Noah....The Israelites.....they had to wait many years

Because it is His plan and not ours. His will, not ours. He has pre-ordained everything. What He will have done and what He will intercede in.
