Answered Prayers

And they were helped against them, and the Hagarites were delivered into their hand, and all that were with them: for they cried to God in the battle, and he was intreated of them; because they put their trust in him. 1 Chronicles 5:20

God answers our prayers. What God does not do is this: he does not answer our prayers in a time and fashion of our choosing, and He does not always answer our prayers by saying, "Yes." Sometimes our loving Heavenly Father responds to our requests by saying "No", and we must accept His answer, even though we may not understand it.
God answers prayers not according to our wishes but according to His master plan. We cannot know that plan, but we can know the Planner. . . and we must trust His wisdom, His righteousness, and His unending love.

"What God gives in answer to our prayers will always be the thing we most urgently need, and it will always be sufficient." -- Elisabeth Elliot
