Have you ever been in a situation where you've prayed and prayed and felt like God was not listening or cared? I’m sure all of us have been there at one time or another. Perhaps Daniel began to feel that way after calling on God for three full weeks with no answer or even any signs of God hearing. He went through all the rituals of fasting and yet he did not get the answer. Finally after three full weeks he received the answer, (Fear not, Daniel: for from the first day that thou didst set thine heart to understand, and to chasten thyself before thy God, thy words were heard, and I am come for thy words.”)
We can be sure that when we pray and believe that all things are possible and that God will hear and answer our prayers. The answer will come at the appropriate time. While we are waiting for the answer, He gives us grace to stand strong and firm on God’s Word. Remember--it's always too soon to quit praying, believing, anticipating and knowing that God will be faithful to His words. He says, "I will hear from Heaven."
