Sometimes. Fortunately, his listening doesn't depend on my feelings.

Jesus says this. (Ok, ok, if you aren't a believer just go with the flow ok?).
If you have need of anything then go and pray to my Father whom art in Heaven but, pray in a quite place away from other s that they may not hear your prayer and ridicule you. Same with giving your Tythes, let not others see you give to your God.
My thinking is this. When we, and I mean ALL peoples of all religeons, Pray in a large group being guided by a human being who knows sod all about nothing, the prayer is NOT real, it doesnt get there as it were, in a Church the vicar says "Let us Pray" and for some 34 seconds he bleats on about something that WE have no interest in at that time. Pray by your self to your God. Be it in a field, a toilet, a Church, a Synagogue where ever. Then the Prayer will get "through". Why should a "man" TELL you what to say?

When I Pray I know that God Hears Me. Even If you don't beleive, He still listens. He alwyas answers. Just because we don't get what we pray for, bdoesnt mean he hasn't answered. He's just not said Yes to your prayer. I think we need to pray less for ourselves and more for others. Preyer shouldn't be about getting things we want. God knows whats Best for us, and Thats what I always remember. But Yes, I do beleive, that No matter where you are, If you mean it what your praying ( and not just saying a Silly prayer you dont really mean) then God Is listening. And He always will be listening.

Most of the times I do but there were times when I thought that he wasn't listening to me & that I was only talking to myself. After he answered those prayers I felt ashamed of myself & I thanked him for answering me even when I doubted that he was listening.
U know sometimes the Lord might not answer your prayer the way u wanted it to be answered, He's so unpredictable. Sometimes the time isn't right for the answer of the prayer. Maybe ur praying for the wrong thing too. Maybe yr praying for something & the Lord's plan is to give u something better that what ur asking for (it happened to me a lot). may be your asking for something u'll regret later. God knows. Just trust in Him & thank Him for whatever he brings (good or bad), & he'll do the best for u because He loves u & cares for you more than any one.

God is definitely listening to me when I pray! Prayer simply is talking to God. If God was not listening I would just be talking to the air or myself!

Most the time, I do feel God is listening. Even when I don't feel "it" I know God is listening. More important though is to make sure we are listening when we pray. To quote C.S. Lewis, "I pray so God can change me, not that I can change God."

I know that when I pray God is listening to me,because his word says that when the righteous pray he hears them. I am a christian ,so I know for certain that he hears me when I pray.

I don't know how I still have faith in God, because my prayers rarely come true. My feelings can't control whether God is listening or not. I just hope God is listening.

God is ALWAYS listening. He commands us to "Pray without ceasing." The problem is our responsibility to listen for, understand, accept, and act upon His answers.

I absolutely do feel God is listening. And i have His word to back me up on that feeling. It tells me that he will always hear my prayers. Also, when i pray, the Holy Spirit quickens me and reassures me that God hears my prayers.
