The thought of our prayers falling on the Lord’s deaf ears is chilling. Not that He didn’t hear, put paid no attention. God is really not deaf. When scripture speaks of God not hearing it’s Him not answering. There could be an obstacle, that’s where there is no relationship or regard for God then He turns. May it be God is merciful to hear as those who call on Him humble themselves in prayer. On the cross, Christ pleaded for God’s help. Even so, we need to honour Christ as Lord in our hearts then God will hear from heaven.
“If I regard iniquity in my heart,
The Lord will not hear.
But certainly God has heard me;
He has attended to the voice of my prayer.
Blessed be God,
Who has not turned away my prayer,
Nor His mercy from me!” Psalms 66:18-20
God bless.
Evangelist Israel Okunwaye
