No God wont answer your prayer but if you are lucky Your boyfriend will come to see you anyway. I have been reading others advise. I see it is all nonsense. It's perfectly all right to have a boyfriend at 14. Its just a little young for sex. Be a good girl now and dont go doing anything you shouldnt. Good luck.

Faith comes by hearing the word of God. If you believe that this is the will of God for your life, God will finish what He has started. God doesn't withhold what we want because of any thing in our past if we have asked for forgiveness. He forgets all that he forgives.
You are young to be looking for a boyfriend's visit without his parents. Just make sure YOUR parents will chaperon and are overseeing this visit and probably God will answer your prayer.

No matter if He gives you what you want or not, God does not take into account that you didn't always believe in Him. All that matters is that you do now!
However, sometimes God knows better what is for our benefit and if He doesn't grant this request, it doesn't mean that He doesn't listen to you. He may just know that something bad will happen if He does make it happen. Since God knows all the possible ways this could go, I am sure that He will do what is best for you.
Just know that Jesus was treated like we deserved, so that WE could be treated like Jesus deserves. God will give it to you as long as it is not harmful to anyone involved. If you approach God with Jesus covering your sin... it doesn't matter if you have been on your best behavior, He will look at you the same as He looks at Christ.

God doesn't grant wishes based on how much you pray. He's not a capitalist doling out divine favors at a cost. It's not like there's a price list somewhere saying that God will grant you a kiss for 20 days of praying and a car for 50.

wow what an answer jerky.
God knows excactly what is best for you even when you dont understand. & there will lots of those. 14...Maybe you should wait awhile on the BF thing. Going to church...and being 100% dont work very well with GOD in your life. You're going to want to be a good girl, DONT ask for this. There are plently of things that you will NEED in the future, you dont want to waste this on a WANT.

wow you are right all these answers suck! theres a select few that are a little bit nice! Im sorry Im not a christian but I cast spells that are similar to prayers and like someone said having your prayers answered can mean "Yes" "No" and "Wait" Im sorry this isnt a better explanation adn probably you didnt want this but hey remember to have faith! faith moves mountains! and It can certainly move your boyfriend's parents minds into letting him see you good luck!
blessed be

No But you might influence your boy friends parents . No matter how much we attempt to control our lives there is a point where our ego ends and some say god takes over while others say it's in the hands of probability or just plain luck.which ever you subscribe to, good luck .

Since your prayer seems a bit selfish, I doubt it.
Can you explain how it brings glory to God and spreads the good news of Jesus Christ to others. Is it part of God's plan or is it yours alone?

it does not matter how good you are or how much you pray if it is in Gods plan then your bf will come or maybe he wont because God knows excactly what is best for you even if it is painful at the time.

He will answer your prayer. That doesn't mean you'll get what you want. It means you will see God's will come to pass. THAT is what you should be praying for!!!!!!!!!!!!
