Does God really hear and answer our Prayers?

Answer 1

Yes one I prayed for and one from my friends here who prayed for me

God Bless You

Answer 2

No.

Have you ever thought about the offering plate in church? If God is real, why do they have to pass it? If you read these verses in the Bible, you can see that God claims to be extremely powerful and willing to answer any prayer:

* Matthew 7:7
* Matthew 17:20
* Matthew 21:21
* Mark 11:24
* John 14:12-14
* Matthew 18:19
* Mark 9:23
* Luke 1:37

Now consider this: Why don't the ministers and deacons of the church gather together every Sunday morning and pray to Jesus for the money they need? Why doesn't Jesus answer their prayers? Why do churches have to beg for money from mere mortals when there is an immortal, all-powerful God who should provide anything they ask for? Here is what "God" is saying:

Pray to me for anything and I will hear and answer your prayers. I say it in dozens of places in the Bible, but I like the way I say it in Mark 11:24 the best: "Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours." Anything you need -- money, love, happiness, you name it -- I am here to provide it for you.

Now, there is just one thing I need in return. I need your money. I need lots of your money. The Bible specifies that you tithe ten percent of your income to me, but think of that as a starting point. Feel free to give more!

Because even though I created the universe and everything in it, and even though I will give you everything you ask for in prayer, I can't give a cent to any church, ever. When they pass the offering plate at church, be sure to give generously!

This, of course, is ridiculous.

The reason why they pass the offering plate at church is because God is imaginary.

Answer 3

Absolutely. However, selfish motivation or a bad heart condition could cause him to turn a deaf ear toward your prayers if you were not willing to change. God has written you a letter. Have you been reading it? He has made a provision for you to gather with others who also love him and want to do his will. Are you taking advantage of it? These are just 2 ways he answers our prayers. Are you overlooking them?

Answer 4

Yes he does. He loves you soo much! Sometimes its no or wait. If you have a relationship with God he will hear your prayers. It is the best friendship

Answer 5

The Bible says he does, but says nothing about the "no, yes, wait' scenario. that's just an excuse for why God isn't answering according to how he says he will in the Bible. Think about it, all circumstances have a "no, yes, wait" potential, it doesn't take prayer to get those answers or circumstances.

Answer 6

He will always hear one sincere prayer.....
the one where you ask Him to open your eyes to the Truth of Jesus Christ.
other answers depend on your relationship with God and His Son Jesus Christ.
if you make a practice of denying God, why should He hear you? To you, He is not there.

Answer 7

I believe in God, and that He are taking care of us right now, but answering our prayer is the one thing that i think shouldn't be taking too literally.

of all prayers and oftenly, one prayers contradict one another, which one should He choose to answer?
Well i think, in a way he prepared the best scenario not just for me or you but the whole mankind, in the whole world eventhough it is meant that He can not answering each of mine, yours or their prayer, He knows what's best for us better than ourselves.

Answer 8

Every single one of them, and he answers Yes, No, or Wait. You have to learn through patience what answer he has given you to your prayer. Sometimes people assume God has answered No because they didn't receive immediately, but many times the answer actually was wait, but they gave up.

Answer 9

That depends on weather or not your are saved. If you are not saved then God does not hear your prayers. Also, if you are saved but living like the devil, are in sin, are not right with God then God doesn't hear your prayers.

Answer 10

I believe that God truly hears our prayers and He will answer them if they are in His will. I mean it's probably no good praying for a diamond ring because God probably isn't going to think you need one. But He knows what's in your heart and if you pray and if you believe He can do it and if it's what's best for you then yes He will answer.

Answer 11

Yes. Sometimes it takes time for him to answer you prayers because he waits until you are ready for. Although you might think you are ready at the moment you might not be (he knows best. )
