Speaking at the close of a two-day prophetic conference, Intimacy 2024, held in Kumba, Cameroun, the renowned preacher emphasised that prayer changes people before it changes their situations.

“Prayer doesn’t change things; it changes you until things change. If you don’t see answers now, it means you are being changed. Soon, things will change,” Apostle Suleman explained, stressing the spiritual process behind unanswered prayers.

The Restoration Apostle highlighted the common misunderstanding that prayer brings immediate solutions. According to him, God’s priority is to transform the individual first, and once this transformation occurs, external circumstances will eventually align.

“God wants to help, but He does it His way. He changes us for things to change,” Suleman added.

Drawing from biblical examples, he referred to Jacob, a well-known figure who wrestled in prayer until God granted him a new identity.

Apostle Suleman explained that Jacob’s life changed not because of a direct answer to his prayers, but through the transformation of his character and name, which led to a new story and destiny.

Apostle Suleman emphasised that prayer brings believers into alignment with God’s will. As they are transformed, they become better equipped to receive God’s intended solutions.

“Prayer changes the one praying,” he concluded, urging believers to trust in God’s timing and wisdom, knowing that God is working behind the scenes even when immediate answers seem delayed.
