1 Peter 1:7 - That the trial of your faith, being much more
precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be
found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ
There will be times in our lives that in order for our blessings to come to pass, the Lord will allow us to go through trial after trial before He steps in. He does this to allow us to see that we may not have the faith or trust in Him as we should. It’s only when we lay aside our ideas, our plans, our ways and come to the end ourselves; that the the LORD will start working in our lives. He want us to get out of the way, so that He can do what He needs to do. So often our 'striving to work things out' in our own power, hinders us from receiving all the Lord wants us to have.
It is not that the Lord does not want to answer us. He wants very much to supply our needs and that is why He sometimes allow things to appear as though every door has been closed and blocked. Oh, but faith believers, we are to praise the LORD, for He is not restricted by anything! He will open up a new way. Even if He has to bring about abundant blessings to you, through the most least expected way. When you think that all hope is gone; when you can see no way out; it is then that the Lord will step in and show you that He is more than able to bless you, with not only what you have asked for, but so much more.

Beloved,
Are you facing a situation that appear to be beyond hope?
Have you tried so hard to work things out but it appears that you are getting nowhere.
And that your faith is fading?
If you are in this position, then I say to you, let go.
Just take your hands off of it and commit it to Me.
Once and for all, talk to Me about your concerns.
Talk with Me about what you’re struggling with,
then leave it at My feet and rest in Me.
Say a prayer of thanksgiving and know that I will work it out.
When you do this, you move self out of the way
and allow Me the opportunity to move mightily on your behalf.
Have childlike faith in Me and know that I won’t fail.
Rest in Me and begin to praise Me in advance
for the blessings you asked for.
Then suddenly, when you least expect it,
and out of nowhere,
your desires and requests will come to pass.
Oft times, you will find that I have exceeded your request
and that I have done the impossible in your life.
Then you will see that while you were worrying needlessly,
I had been working on your behalf.
Quietly and behind the scenes,
to bless you and to cause My joy
to be upon your life.
- Your Lord and Savior, JESUS CHRIST

I think this Scripture sums it up perfectly, Ephesians 3:20 says - Now to him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us…
The Lord wants us to have so much more.
