"How gracious He will be when you cry for help! As soon as He hears, He will answer you."
~Isaiah 30:19
When we pray, God hears us.
And as long as what we're praying is aligned with God's Will, as soon as He hears, He answers our prayers! The answer may be dramatic or sudden, or He may begin something that we won't see as an answer until sometime in the future. Sometimes answered prayers are not what we expected.
God doesn't hesitate to answer our prayers: "As soon as He hears". We have to come to Him though and ask; we have to present our requests to God. Luke 11:9-10 says that if we ask, it will be given to us. God can't answer the prayers that we don't bother praying- that's why we are told to present our requests to God for everything (Philippians 4:6) and to pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:17).
"He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?" (Romans 8:32)
Why wouldn't God want to answer our prayers? He's already given us everything else! God wants to answer your prayers- He is answering your prayers. You just have to pray them.
