My Question for God

How can I know that God is listening to my prayers?

A Moment with God

The LORD is far from the wicked, but he hears the prayers of the righteous.

Proverbs 15:29

Devote yourselves to prayer with an alert mind and a thankful heart.

Colossians 4:2

Sometimes it may feel as if your prayers are bouncing off the ceiling. Is God paying attention? The bigger question is this: Are you paying attention? God does answer prayer, and he wants to do so because he is loving and good. It’s his nature to give good things to his people. But, after a problem is resolved, you may fail to give God the credit because you didn’t notice that he answered! When you pray, be alert and watch for God’s response, even if it isn’t what you expected. And don’t forget to thank him for it, because no matter what it is, you can be sure that it is in your best interest.

Divine Promise

The eyes of the Lord watch over those who do right, and his ears are open to their prayers.

1 Peter 3:12
