Believe That You Have Received - a daily devotional by Andrew Wommack
Bible ref: MATTHEW 21:18-19
The Greek word for presently means ‘instantly; immediately; soon.’ However, the disciples didn’t realize that the fig tree had died until the next day. If the tree died instantly, why didn’t they notice it until the next morning? The answer to this question is found in Mark 11:20. The tree was dead from the roots up. The tree did die instantly just as the Word declared, but what had happened to the roots wasn’t visible until the next morning.

God’s answer comes before we see the manifestation of what we have believed the Lord for when we prayed. Just as with this fig tree, the answer lies beneath the surface, and therefore we don’t ‘see’ what God is doing until the answer manifests.
