What do you do when God says “no” to your prayer? In this clip from The Hacka Podcast, Ryan Neer shares powerful biblical wisdom about answered prayer, discerning the will of God, God’s timing, spiritual growth, ministry calling, and learning to trust God when the answer isn’t what you expected.

Ryan explains that God answers prayer with yes, no, or not right now—and sometimes the “no” you receive today is simply an “underdeveloped now.” How we respond when God closes a door can determine whether we’re prepared when He eventually opens it.

We also explore why Christians can remain stuck in seasons God has already ended, the difference between correction and rejection, and what Joseph’s story teaches us about spiritual gifts. Joseph had the gift early, but God had to mature how he used it. Our gifts aren't given for our own validation or elevation—they're given so we can serve and bless others.

If you’re praying for direction, waiting on God, navigating a closed door, or trying to understand His will for your life, this conversation with Ryan Neer will encourage you to trust the process.
