There is a song which we like to sing in church, whose lyrics are gotten from the psalms, going along the lines f - Hear my cry O Lord, attend unto my prayer, from the ends of the earth will I cry unto Thee, when my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to the rock that is higher than I... We sang it so much that it was hard for a newcomer not to be quite familiar with it, by the time they had attended our local fellowship for one month. Now, the great part is that God does hear our prayer, and as we see in the New Testament, when we pray in the name of Jesus, He answers us. John 14v13& 14 say:
"And whatsoever ye shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
If ye shall ask any thing in My name, I will do it."
Isn't that an amazing promise? So keep praying, keep pushing ... but bearing in mind that there is a possibility of praying amiss. So dig deep into the Word and pray along the will of God for you.
Have a blessed day.

Verses for thought:
"if I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:
But verily God hath heard me, He hath attended to the voice of my prayer." Psalm 66v18&19

Our dearest Heavenly Father,
We just want to thank You once again for the priviledge of being called Yours and the priviledge of being able to bring everything to You in prayer. We thank You for Your goodness and Your mercy and the opportunity to pour out our hearts before You, You being a refuge for us. Blessed be Your holy name O Lord. Once again we pray Father, that You send forth Your labourers into Your harvest, for the harvest indeed is plenteous, but the labourers are few. Thank You Father, thank You Son, thank You Holy Spirit of God. May You forever be glorified in all that we do in Jesus name, amen.
