OAA

We are all used to the PANIC 911 prayers… life is going fine then BAM a big thing happens and we all of a sudden fall to our knees and Dial 1800 God Help…

Prayer is easy..its simply talking to God and anyone can do it. Some connect with Gods heart and some do not…..

Does GOD hear all prayers?

Can we pray to God and him not hear us?

Luke 18:9-14

9 The Parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector

Also He spoke this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous, and despised others: 10 "Two men went up to the temple to pray, one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector.  11 The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself,'God, I thank You that I am not like other men — extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this tax collector.  12 I fast twice a week; I give tithes of all that I possess.'  13 And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God, be merciful to me a sinner!'  14 I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other; for everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted." 

NKJV

Both went to Pray  only 1 connected with Gods heart….

Pharasee was elequont, articulate, knew scripture,

Tax collector- full of humility, had reckless trust in God,  Tax collector Got gods ear

The pharasee went home empty…..
