In the sense that God is all-knowing, the answer would have to be "yes" -- he hears them. In the sense that God always answers prayer in the manner we wish, the answer is "no". But prayers are denied (in a sense, they are not heard) to, for example, those who ask amiss (James 4:3); who regard iniquity in their heart (Ps.66:18); who live in sin (John 9:31); who are idolators (Ezek.8:15-18); who are hypocrites (Job 27:8-9). It becomes apparent that the prerequisite to an effective prayer life is maintaining a right relationship with God. Even so, when God hears our prayers, His answer may be something quite different from what we pray for or expect. One of the singular blessings of my prayers is that some of them were't answered in the affirmative. Looking backward I have been able to see why they weren't. God knows more about what is good for Hank than Hank ever did or ever will! --Hank | ||||||
