James 4:2,3 - “You have not because you ask not. You ask, and receive not, because you ask amiss.”  

What does it mean to pray wrong?  In many cases, it simply means to pray without expecting results. Many Believers use prayer as a kind of spiritual wishbone. 

Start praying to in the Name of Jesus according to the Word of God, and expecting to receive what you ask for every single time – this is bold and you have a scriptural right to be bold. According to scripture, you have a standing invitation from your heavenly Father to “come boldly unto the throne of grace that you MAY OBTAIN” (Hebrews 4:16). That word “obtain” is a word of certainty meaning to “get possession of.”  

When you go to God in accurate, Word of God-based, Spirit-inspired prayer, you DO know that He’s going to meet your need exactly as you asked Him. Start expecting Him to do it today.
