Proverbs - He Hears Our Prayer


Proverbs 15:29        

 The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.

Sometimes when we are in a conversation with someone we consider ourselves heard when they answer us back.  We can have this same sort of expectation on the Lord.  If we don’t recognize Him answering our prayers we may come to the dangerous and erroneous conclusion that He is not listening.  This is not true.  If we are righteous in His sight because of the blood of Christ and our conscience is open to Him and clear, we are heard.  The quietness we may discern is not an apathy or indifference but a God who is not shaken or moved by what we share.  His ear is tuned to us and the stillness is a place of rest knowing He hears and will respond with answers and not just understanding.  Wait on the Lord.  He will strengthen your heart and He is listening.
