He hears the prayer of the righteous - Proverbs 15:29.
God heard the prayer of Zechariah and Elizabeth conceived when they both were very old. But the angel said to him: “Do not be afraid, Zechariah; your prayer has been heard. Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you are to call him John" - Luke 1:13. Now after those days his wife Elizabeth conceived; and she hid herself five months, saying, “Thus the Lord has dealt with me, in the days when He looked on me, to take away my reproach among people” - Luke 1:24,25.
Zechariah and his wife Elizabeth were righteous and they both walked blameless in the sight of God by following all His commands. And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord blameless - Luke 1:6. God heard the prayer of Zechariah and Elizabeth as His eyes are on the righteous and His ears are open to their prayers. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their prayers - 1 Peter 3:12.
All things are possible for our God. For with God nothing will be impossible - Luke 1:37. For God to hear and answer our prayers, let us be righteous and walk blameless in the sight of God by following all His commands. The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears, And delivers them out of all their troubles - Psalm 34:17. I am God Almighty; walk before me, and be blameless - Genesis 17:1.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us to be righteous and walk blameless in your sight by following all Your commands for You to answer our prayers. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen.
