Psalm 116:1-2
I love the Lord, because He has heard my voice and my supplications.
Because He has inclined His ear to me, therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live.
I hear every prayer that comes from your heart. Before it even reaches your lips and releases into the atmosphere, I hear it. You have My full attention continually. I attentively listen to everything you say because what you pray dramatically affects the spiritual and physical realms.
When you call upon Me for whatever reason, I am here. Your prayers and supplications move Me because they come from a place of trust in your heart. You would not talk to Me unless you knew I was listening....that is faith and it blesses Me and moves My heart on your behalf.
At times, I know you feel I don't hear your prayers and they seem to hit the ceiling and bounce off, but every one of them are carried to My throne and placed in the golden bowls of incense. These bowls are rapidly filling up and angels are tipping them to pour manifold blessings over My children.
Every prayer you utter impacts this world for My Kingdom changing it forever. Every prayer you utter on behalf of your family and friends causes heaven to move on their account. Every prayer you offer for the harvest produces a bountiful crop of salvations. Whether you see this with your physical eyes or not, trust Me, your prayers carry tremendous weight in the Spirit.
Give no place to the enemies of doubt, unbelief, and discouragement who lie saying your prayer is futile and useless. Command those lying spirits to shut up in the Name of Jesus Christ. They lie because they know just how powerful your prayers are and they must stop them all cost.
I love when you pray because I love and cherish our times together, but I do have one request, may we meet more often?
Lord Jesus, what a marvelous and awesome God I serve. To know the God of all, the one who created the heavens and the earth and everything in them takes the time to listen to every one of my prayers. This is astounding to me and beyond my ability to comprehend. Thank You for loving me so much that You actually attend to my words and listen when I speak. You place value on every word and for this, I am humbled. I will come to You in prayer not just because You hear me, but because I love You and enjoy our times together. Amen!
