God Listens
You can talk to God because God listens. Your voice matters in heaven. He
takes you very seriously. When you enter his presence, the attendants
turn
to
you to hear your voice. No need to fear that you will be ignored. Even if
you stammer or stumble, even if what you have to say impresses no one, it
impresses
God-and he listens. He listens to the painful plea of the elderly in the
rest home. He listens to the gruff confession of the death-row inmate.
When
the
alcoholic begs for mercy, when the spouse seeks guidance, when the
businessman steps off the street into the chapel, God listens.
Intently. Carefully. The prayers are honored as precious jewels. Purified
and empowered, the words rise in a delightful fragrance to our Lord. "The
smoke
from the incense went up from the angel's hand to God." Incredible. Your
words do not stop until they reach the very throne of God.
Then, the angel "filled the incense pan with fire from the altar and
threw
it on the earth" (Rev. 8:5). One call and Heaven's fleet appears. Your
prayer
on earth activates God's power in heaven, and "God's will is done on
earth
as it is in heaven."
You are the someone of God's kingdom. You have access to God's furnace.
Your
prayers move God to change the world. You may not understand the mystery
of
prayer. You don't need to. But this much is clear: Actions in heaven
begin
when someone prays on earth. What an amazing thought!
Lucado Inspirational Reader
When you speak, Jesus hears.
And when Jesus hears, thunder falls.
And when thunder falls, the world is changed.
All because someone prayed.

Now to Him who is able to keep you from falling, and to make you stand in
the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our
Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and
authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. Jude 1:24-25
