Whose prayers
does God
answer?
PASTOR CHUCK LUCAS
N
ational Day of Prayer is this coming week on Thursday, and many people will pray for God’s intervention in their
lives and in the situations of the world.
But is God obligated to answer our prayers? Whose prayer s does He answer anyway?
First, let me tell you whose prayers God doesn’t answer:
In Psalm 66:18 it says, "If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me." When we embrace (hold on
to) our sin, harboring it rather than confessing and forsaking it, God won’t answer our prayers. Proverbs 1:23-29 says, "If you
had responded to my rebuke, I would have poured out my heart to you and made my thoughts known to you. But since you
rejected me when I called and no one gave heed when I stretched out my hand, since you ignored all my advice and would not
accept my rebuke, I in turn will laugh at your disaster; I will mock when calamity overtakes you…..Then they will call to me
but I will not answer. They look for me but will not find me."
Second, let me tell you whose prayer God does answer:
In 2nd Chronicles 7:14 it says, "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray…"
a) Humble means to bend the knee, thereby implying subjection. This is an outward sign of an inner submission to God.
God hates a proud look; humility implies obedience. The old hymn "Trust and obey, for there’s no other way…" still holds
true . If you obey God’s Word, then He will answer your prayer.
b) Pray in 2nd Chronicles 7:14 means "to judge" or to welcome the mind of Christ and the authority of His Word into our
lives in a kind of "Thy will be done" attitude.
c) The next step in 2nd Chronicles to answered prayer is to turn from our wicked ways or admit our sin, confess it and stop
doing it. Then God will answer your prayers. "Then I will hear from Heaven…"
On National Day of Prayer, Thursday, May 2, we need to join together as a community, humble ourselves, turn from our
wicked ways, pray, obey, and then watch God work.
