We do it&nbsp;whenever we&nbsp;are so sure someone&nbsp;will say no to a&nbsp;request&nbsp;we might have&nbsp;that we don\u2019t&nbsp;even&nbsp;bother to ask.&nbsp;We convince ourselves that the other person will refuse&nbsp;our request&nbsp;or maybe even be offended&nbsp;by it,&nbsp;so&nbsp;we never ask. As a result, that great idea, opportunity, event, or possibility never happens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It won\u2019t always work out for you, but I can\u2019t&nbsp;even&nbsp;tell you how many times&nbsp;simply&nbsp;asking (or proposing an offer) has worked in my favor. In my last couple&nbsp;\u201creal\u201d jobs I would regularly suggest ideas&nbsp;to our team that&nbsp;would involve other people helping&nbsp;us&nbsp;achieve a goal. At&nbsp;first&nbsp;I was met with skepticism that other people (specifically&nbsp;professionals outside our non-profit organization) would oblige. I&nbsp;would say,&nbsp;\u201cDon\u2019t say no for them. This&nbsp;[proposal]&nbsp;is the best solution, so I will ask. If they say no,&nbsp;we\u2019ll&nbsp;go to plan B.\u201d&nbsp;More times than not,&nbsp;we were surprised at people\u2019s willingness to help us.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As an example, when I worked&nbsp;in the national office&nbsp;for Open Bible&nbsp;Churches,&nbsp;we would&nbsp;schedule&nbsp;planning&nbsp;meetings&nbsp;for the&nbsp;upcoming issues of&nbsp;the&nbsp;<em>Message of the Open Bible<\/em>.&nbsp;High quality photos&nbsp;are&nbsp;key to a good user experience in the&nbsp;media,&nbsp;so we needed&nbsp;high&nbsp;resolution images&nbsp;to accompany articles.&nbsp;For one issue we needed a cover-worthy&nbsp;photo&nbsp;of a person from another city who was&nbsp;the subject of one of our articles, but we didn\u2019t have the budget to&nbsp;fly&nbsp;a full-time photographer to the site and do a&nbsp;shoot. I floated the idea&nbsp;that we&nbsp;search&nbsp;online&nbsp;for a photographer&nbsp;located&nbsp;in that&nbsp;person\u2019s&nbsp;city&nbsp;who&nbsp;we thought fit our style and needs, and then ask&nbsp;him or her&nbsp;if they would be interested in&nbsp;providing&nbsp;us&nbsp;our needed&nbsp;photo. They would get credit in print, a copy of the print magazine with their&nbsp;featured&nbsp;photo, and a charitable donation receipt&nbsp;for&nbsp;the value of their photo shoot.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote is-style-default\"><blockquote class=\"has-text-color has-vivid-red-color\"><p>Every&nbsp;time I feel the Lord leading me to do something different, seemingly crazy or intimidating, I remember that&nbsp;He has already gone before me. If&nbsp;He has genuinely called me,&nbsp;He\u2019ll pick up my slack. Not only that, but (catch this part)&nbsp;He has gone before me to cultivate the hearts and minds of those I will encounter in this new scary thing&nbsp;He\u2019s asked me to&nbsp;do.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the surface&nbsp;this&nbsp;proposal&nbsp;seemed&nbsp;crazy. Even my coworkers,&nbsp;who&nbsp;were&nbsp;not closed-minded people by any means, weren\u2019t sure it would work. I wasn\u2019t either. However, I didn\u2019t want to&nbsp;say no&nbsp;for an aspiring photographer that would love to have a cover photo,&nbsp;or&nbsp;a successful photographer that needed the tax write-off, or just another Christian that wanted to use his or her gifts for the Kingdom. We would still pay them&nbsp;our allotted budget even if it was just a token of appreciation, not nearly what the photo was worth.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It worked!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We did it several&nbsp;more&nbsp;times.&nbsp;As we communicated with the photographers, it&nbsp;became&nbsp;clear that God had gone before us to prepare them for our request. He cultivated their hearts and minds before our crazy request was ever sent. As a result, more people outside our&nbsp;normal&nbsp;sphere of influence learned about Open Bible and what God was doing through our churches and people,&nbsp;and we obtained quality&nbsp;photography. Can&nbsp;it be true that God works on our behalf to gain favor with others? The answer is yes!&nbsp;Let us not forget that GOD IS FOR US!&nbsp;The Bible is packed with stories about God working in other people\u2019s hearts to bless His people. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One\u00a0great\u00a0example\u00a0is\u00a0when\u00a0Nehemiah asked King Artaxerxes to\u00a0grant him permission\u00a0not only\u00a0to\u00a0take leave to journey home for months,\u00a0but also to be granted safe passage\u00a0with royal escort\u00a0through all the neighboring territories. Then\u00a0\u2013 this\u00a0is my favorite\u00a0\u2013 he\u00a0requested that\u00a0the keeper of the\u00a0king\u2019s forests\u00a0would give\u00a0him\u00a0the necessary lumber to rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. Free building materials\u00a0(Nehemiah 2:4-8)!\u00a0In retrospect,\u00a0my\u00a0asking an Instagram photographer to do a short photoshoot doesn\u2019t seem like that big of a\u00a0deal. Do\u00a0you think the Lord had been softening the\u00a0king\u2019s heart toward\u00a0Nehemiah?\u00a0No doubt Nehemiah was a good worker and honorable man, but how many times have good workers and honorable men been overlooked? No, God cultivated the heart of the\u00a0king for years to eventually honor Nehemiah\u2019s\u00a0request. Every\u00a0time I feel the Lord leading me to do something different, seemingly crazy or intimidating, I remember that\u00a0He has already gone before me. If\u00a0He has genuinely called me,\u00a0He\u2019ll pick up my slack. Not only that, but (catch this part)\u00a0He has gone before me to cultivate the hearts and minds of those I will encounter in this new scary thing\u00a0He\u2019s asked me to\u00a0do. We\u2019ve\u00a0all been humbled along the way\u00a0when we\u00a0realize how silly we were to put God in a box. Every time I think of that\u00a0advice\u00a0I was given years ago, I remember that I have no idea what God has been doing in the background. He\u2019s a master chess player, and\u00a0He\u2019s probably been setting me up for years without my knowledge. He probably even put that desire in my heart to ask\u00a0in the first place.\u00a0So\u00a0I trust that\u00a0He is for me,\u00a0He\u2019s gone ahead, and the doors are already open\u00a0\u2013 not\u00a0because of anything I\u2019ve done, but because of His goodness and faithfulness.\u00a0Thankfully\u00a0for me,\u00a0He factored in my stupidity. Shame on me\u00a0for ever\u00a0doubting the Creator of the\u00a0Universe. So\u00a0maybe there\u2019s a permission-giver\u00a0standing\u00a0in the way of something you feel God is calling you to do. Here\u2019s some advice we can learn from Nehemiah:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:30px\"><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\"><strong>1.&nbsp;Pray<\/strong>. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When Nehemiah learned of the wall\u2019s condition, he repented and prayed.&nbsp;He repented&nbsp;for the Israelites\u2019 actions and practiced&nbsp;humility. It&nbsp;was&nbsp;not until the very last line of the prayer that he asked&nbsp;for God to give him favor with the King,&nbsp;something God had been cultivating for years for this purpose without either&nbsp;the king\u2019s or Nehemiah\u2019s&nbsp;knowledge&nbsp;(Nehemiah 1:4-11).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:30px\"><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">2.&nbsp;Make a plan&nbsp;for the permission-giver. <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nehemiah&nbsp;considered&nbsp;how long his trip would take, the lands he would have to travel through safely, and how he would have to rebuild the wall once he got there. He&nbsp;crafted&nbsp;a&nbsp;plan BEFORE he ever had the chance to ask the&nbsp;king so that he was ready for the opportunity. No doubt the plan sounded crazy, but you would have to think that the&nbsp;king appreciated the forethought that formed the plan.&nbsp;The king&nbsp;liked&nbsp;Nehemiah,&nbsp;but the sound plan might have sealed the deal. In our photographer illustration, we presented&nbsp;the photographers&nbsp;with a plan that could be a win-win for both of us. We didn\u2019t leave it&nbsp;up&nbsp;to them to come up with a solution for us.&nbsp;In your own situation, this could&nbsp;mean&nbsp;devising&nbsp;a plan for your employer&nbsp;so he or she could give you&nbsp;a more flexible schedule or&nbsp;allow you to&nbsp;work from home. Maybe&nbsp;your employer&nbsp;needs&nbsp;to make some changes and your plan is what they\u2019re looking for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:30px\"><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-red-color\">3.&nbsp;Walk in&nbsp;the favor&nbsp;of the Lord!<\/span><\/strong>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the\u00a0king\u2019s approval, Nehemiah walked in boldness to complete the task. Imagine moving forward with the permission-giver\u2019s support at your back and God preparing the way in front of you. This is walking in favor\u00a0with\u00a0the Lord. No doubt you will hit snags. Watch what the Lord does to\u00a0help\u00a0in those times\u00a0because\u00a0He already knows\u00a0about that snag.  Do you think He has a plan for it?\u00a0Checkmate.So,\u00a0if you KNOW God is calling you to do something, pray about it, plan for it, and trust\u00a0Him for the confidence to accomplish it. What are you missing out on by assuming the outcome of your request? Who knows what God wants to do through you! When you present a request there\u2019s no way of knowing\u00a0the chances that it will be granted, but when you say no\u00a0for\u00a0your permission-giver, you can be sure the chance will be zero. Don\u2019t say no\u00a0for\u00a0them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft size-full is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Beaird-family.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-17637\" width=\"418\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Beaird-family.jpg 835w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Beaird-family-251x300.jpg 251w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Beaird-family-768x920.jpg 768w, https:\/\/openbiblemessage.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/Beaird-family-600x719.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 418px) 100vw, 418px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em><strong>Nate Beaird,&nbsp;<\/strong>founder and owner of&nbsp;Housewolf&nbsp;Projects,&nbsp;attends Journey Church of the Open Bible in Urbandale, Iowa.&nbsp;According to him, his greatest achievement in life is convincing the coolest chick on the planet to marry him!&nbsp;He and Niki are blessed with three amazing kids.
