Does God answer all the prayers and requests that I bring to
Him at the altar? Most assuredly, as long as I do so in accordance with His will.
( I John 5:14,15) But I must pray knowing that because I come to Him in His
will that I will receive His blessings, and I must be willing to accept that
“No” is as much a blessing as is “Yes” when I pray. God, and only God knows,
what is best for me. He hears my cries, especially when I am afflicted. (Job
34:28). The Psalmist in Psalms 3:4, Psalms 4:1 and Psalms 6:8,9 tells me that
God hears me and listens to me in all things. That means whatever I bring to
His altar, no matter if it sounds trivial, God hears me. God hears me in pain
and suffering and when there would be those that would hurt me. (Psalms 21:2-4,
Psalms 22:4,5,24, Psalms 30:2,3). God hears all my supplications, even if I am
not directly talking to Him. He knows what is on my heart, whether I am joyful
or whether I am in sorrow. And what a blessed LORD for being so receptive and
such a listening God! (Psalms 28:6) It is what makes God real and wonderful and
tangible to me.
