Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know that God has listened and attended to the voice of their prayer. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Listening skills are vital to good relationships. According to statistics gathered by communication researchers, best friends bond because of good listening habits. God listens to the pleas of his people.
Psalm 66:16-20 (ESV) declares, ‘Blessed be God.’
“Come and hear, all you who fear God,
and I will tell what he has done for my soul.
I cried to him with my mouth,
and high praise was on my tongue.
If I had cherished iniquity in my heart,
the Lord would not have listened.
But truly God has listened;
he has attended to the voice of my prayer.
Blessed be God,
because he has not rejected my prayer
or removed his steadfast love from me! ”
How are your listening skills? Do you take time to listen to what God is saying and what God is asking you to do? Do you believe, like the psalmist, that God listens well? Ponder answered prayers and give praise.
