Many people ask, “Does Yahweh answer prayers?” I always say yes. They look surprise and ask, “How do you know?” I know because He answered many of my prayers!
What people really want to know is the secret to getting Yahweh to answer their prayers. More importantly, they want to know how to get everlasting life!
Wouldn’t you want to know that God hears your voice and will respond to your prayers?
Many people pray though they have no faith that Yahweh hears them. They just sort of go through the motion. Others believe Yahweh exist and created all things, but they admit they don’t know Him. God is somewhere yonder.
Well I promise you that you cannot only get to know Yahweh, you can know He hears you and will answer your prayers. His answers often come in unexpected ways and often you must wait and trust in Him. Waiting on Yahweh and believing in Him is paramount to getting your prayers answered. His timing often takes years and other time He answers immediately and we see the results often within seconds, sometimes days, weeks and months. Yahweh says a thousand years is but a day with Him so we must learn to wait and rely on Yahweh when we pray.
I speak from empirical evidence: my personal experiences for almost five decades. I cannot show you. I can tell you so you can experience the presence of Yahweh too. You can learn to wait on Yahweh and discover that He will answer your prayers. If you heed His voice, He will hear and answer. He will move heaven and earth to ensure, secure and bless His children that love Him. How do you show love for Yahweh?
Yahweh simply ask that you obey His voice: His Ten Commandments: Holy Oracles or Royal Commandments. Many dismiss these commandments as archaic. The Commandments reflect love and love exemplifies the character of our Creator Yahweh. They miss out on a profound relationship with the Ancient of Days: Yahweh. They miss out on answered prayers. They suffer because they lack knowledge of what Yahweh expects of them. Our Creator expects us all to walk in love. He told us exactly what to do when He spoke down those Ten Commandments to our Fore-parents long ago.
Many think God changed His mind regarding His Commandments to us; He has not annulled those commands.
The solution is simple: heed His voice.
Now my seventy eight year old father listed some key Bible verses that are at the end of this article that are the keys to your success in prayer and in life; however, I felt the need to share my thoughts to sort of prep you for the verses to follow–not truly necessary and you may just skip down to the verses. My father who analyzes the Bible daily feels certain these verses will help you know for certain the true importance of the Ten Commandments.
These Royal Laws of love, Yahweh personally spoke down Mount Sinai for humanity to guide their lives and discover true wisdom–far greater than gold. He, also, wrote them on two tablets of stone with His fingers–no errors by our Creator!
Do you want to work to obey Yahweh who offers you eternal life or work for the things of this world that will soon fade?
Do you want to work night and day slaving away for fiat money that has no true eternal value? Wouldn’t you rather pursue wisdom worth far greater than gold? True wisdom that leads to eternal life with your Creator!
Wisdom Is Heeding The Voice of Yahweh: Obeying the Ten Commandments (Holy Oracles) Spoken By Our Creator for Our Good
Yahweh heals the sick, leads His people through challenges and protects them from harm. Yet the people protected and guided had one thing in common, they all obeyed the voice of Yahweh. They obeyed the Ten Commandments that represents the character of Yahweh: love. They remembered the fourth commandment to keep the seventh day established at creation holy–the Sabbath day. You demonstrate your love for Yahweh when you trust Him by obeying His voice.
If we ignore the voice of Yahweh, how will He respond to our prayers?
Our prayers will become abominable to Him because we disobey His voice! We reject His Commandments to us and so he rejects our prayers to Him!
Yahweh Does Speak To Those Who Love Him
Yahweh spoke directly to John and Peter at the Mount of Transfiguration (Mark 9:2-30). Yahweh says some very special words. Those words spoken to the apostles were meant for us too. Do you know what Yahweh wants you to hear that you may not want to hear? He wants you and me to listen to Yeshua–see Mark 9:7. Yeshua tells us to obey the voice of Yahweh.
Yahweh personally spoke to humanity.
