How God Answers Prayer Part 1: How God Answers Prayers - Yes, A Biblical Look

One correction - I mention Isaiah 66:2 in this episode. When I said it, I should have listened to myself. (Now I know what Cathy feels like.) The verse I had in mind was Isaiah 65:24

"It will also come to pass that I will answer before they call; while they are still speaking, I will hear.

So think about that verse when you hear Isaiah 66:2 (which is a great verse, too.)

We have also republished a companion Episode:

"Personal/Powerful Prayer Lessons - God is the Same Yesterday, Today, and Forever."

We examine Biblically; God answers prayers precisely as we have asked them. 

The oldest and most faithful servant, Abraham had learned faith as he lived through Abraham's struggles and victories in his wait for the promised son.

We see him pray to Yahweh, a particular prayer, and when the prayer was answered in his view, as he had asked, he had two reactions, as we do:

Meanwhile, the man was gazing at her in silence to know whether the LORD had made his journey successful.

Genesis 24:21, so precise was God's response; his mouth was shut, and he awaited confirmation.

Then, he worshipped:

And he said, "Blessed be the LORD, the God of my master Abraham, who has not forsaken His lovingkindness and His truth toward my master; as for me, the LORD has guided me in the way to the house of my master's brothers."

Genesis 24:27

Let us follow the example of the majestic ones, those chosen by God to cling to Him.

Psalm 5:3

"3 In the morning, O LORD, Thou wilt hear my voice; In the morning I will order my prayer to Thee and eagerly watch."

"What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."
