GOD told Adam to take charge of the earth, subdue it (the government of it), and fill it with people. While GOD is still active in maintaining His will for this block of time He has set up, He will not interfere in our personal lives unless He is invited to. Some people try to use GOD as a personal “genie” in the sky to fix all their problems. The Bible says GOD searches our hearts and knows if our prayers are from the heart or for our selfish wants. Even when our prayers are real, from the heart, GOD may answer one prayer by saying yes and another by saying no.
