Through my personal experience I have noticed that the more you pray the more problems comes on th way . It doesn't mean that you stop praying but when the problem comes despite praying you become more strong in the lord. God never leaves u alone he gives you courage to endure it. When the problems sees you praying continuously they disappear. I m strong in the lord when the problems comes.
