PRAYER 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 MUSINGS.

Prayers must rise from deceitful lips  for when it does, it indicates that the heart from which it is coming from is faulty as deceit itself is iniquity and makes GOD not to lend His ears to content of such prayers. 

Where the above is the case, we must of a necessity heed the counsel of the writer (KING Solomon)of the Book of PROVERBS in PROVERBS 4:20-23 where we are charged to  "Guard our hearts with all diligence, for from our hearts the substance of our lives (or the true content of a person's character is released unto the lips, the mouth for others to know. MATTHEW 12:34.REF).The LORD not only wants to hear our prayers but much more to answer them.Bear in mind that He hears and answers prayers on His own terms and conditions (according to HIS own rules alone). 

The way a person cannot the laws of gravity without bearing the consequences, so also prayers to GOD cannot be done on own terms and conditions and we expect GOD to comply with them and answer simply because we have prayed.

Let's endeavour to do our due diligence with GOD by HIS Word (PSALM 66:18 REF) before we approach unto Him in the place of prayer, if we must get HIS attention. And once this has been done thoroughly we can then approach Him knowing that we will have His attention. (PSALM 66:19.REF.KJV).

May we be humble enough to do as HE requires of us so that we can get at His best for us per time bearing in mind that the LORD is ever willing to hear His own call unto Him in prayer and get at the answers to their call whenever they call unto Him. 

Blessings.
