Q: How do you know if God hears your prayers?

We are taught that God will always hear our prayers and will answer them. When we pray we pray with sincerity, good intent and belief in Him.

To know He really hears us, we should ask him to touch our hearts so we will feel the confirmation that He does hear us. When we feel peace of mind and calmness in our soul, that's when we know God hears us. We will also feel that everything will be fine when we are assured by His spirit in our hearts. 

Here is a prayer to know he hears us!

Lord, if you are real and can hear me, show me! Let me know that you care about the things that concerns me. If you love me let me know you hear me. If you hear me open my ears to hear you, open my eyes to see you in a way I've never seen you before. Help me understand you and your presence, let me see your power in a practical way. Do something unexplainable to verify to me that you specifically hear my prayer.

I know your answers to prayers are sometimes "yes", "no", or "wait" but make it clear for me to distinguish your voice from all other voices. I ask with a clean heart, a right spirit and good intent. Not always do I come to you in belief, help my unbelief. Help me not to doubt who you are and your existence.

If you are the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob be my God. 

Let me know that you hear and will help me, this moment, this day, in Your son Jesus Christ name.

Amen.
