Does God Answer Prayers?

'My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,' says the Lord. 'And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.'
Isaiah 55:8-9 NLT

The world calls it unanswered prayers and then they ask, "Why pray to a God who won’t answer your prayers?"

Have you ever noticed that satan loves to swoop in with questions like that to cause doubt in people’s lives? We've all attended funerals of friends and loved ones who died before they had a chance to be old. I know for certain there were many fervent prayers prayed asking for total healing, and yet God chose to take them Home. Some view that as unanswered prayer. That may seem like fact, but it’s certainly not the Truth.

I don't believe there is any such thing as unanswered prayer. The Truth of the matter is that our prayers ARE answered - ALL of them. They just aren't always answered the way we want them to be…

Sometimes the answer is 'No'

Prayer:

Father,
              Just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so Your ways are higher than our ways and Your thoughts higher than our thoughts. We choose to trust You. Give us revelation, Father. In Jesus’ Name we pray. Amen
