Psalm 5:1 Give ear to my words, O Lord, consider my meditation.
Just as we get to know Christ, He too gets to know us; not that He is lacking in knowledge but rather our relationship grows.
God is listening to all of our prayers, even those flippant ones which we throw up “just in case”.
But it is those that we meditate on that make all the difference.
Ask with courage. Ask with purpose. Ask from your heart. Ask knowing that God is listening.
