When God comes to deliver us, he does not overlook the sins that created the misery in our lives whether they were our sins or sins committed by others. Judgment begins at the house of God. Therefore your circumstances may get worse before they get better.
The epistle of James warns "let not many of you become teachers, knowing that we shall receive a stricter judgment." If a teacher leads us astray ignorance will not excuse him or her from a beating. Jesus said the servant who knows God's will and does not do it shall be beaten with many stripes, and the one who did not know and committed things worthy of stripes shall be beaten with few stripes. God will discipline us before he delivers us because he is not willing that any should perish, including ministers who lead his people astray.
