And this is the boldness we have in God’s presence: that if we ask God for anything that agrees with what he wants, he hears us.
I will do what you asked. I will give you wisdom and understanding that is greater than anyone has had in the past or will have in the future.
The cry of the poor comes to God; he hears the cry of the needy.
He gives those who respect him what they want. He listens when they cry, and he saves them.
In my distress, I said, “God cannot see me!” But you heard my prayer when I cried out to you for help.
The Lord hears good people when they cry out to him, and he saves them from all their troubles.
The Lord listens to those in need and does not look down on captives.
Evil people will get what they fear most, but good people will get what they want most.
The Lord does not listen to the wicked, but he hears the prayers of those who do right.
‘Judah, pray to me, and I will answer you. I will tell you important secrets you have never heard before.’
If you believe, you will get anything you ask for in prayer.”
I know that you always hear me, but I said these things because of the people here around me. I want them to believe that you sent me.”
And if you ask for anything in my name, I will do it for you so that the Father’s glory will be shown through the Son.
If you remain in me and follow my teachings, you can ask anything you want, and it will be given to you.
Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy will be the fullest possible joy.
We all know that God does not listen to sinners, but he listens to anyone who worships and obeys him.
In Christ we can come before God with freedom and without fear. We can do this through faith in Christ.
So do not lose the courage you had in the past, which has a great reward.
We all share in Christ if we keep till the end the sure faith we had in the beginning.
But Christ is faithful as a Son over God’s house. And we are God’s house if we confidently maintain our hope.
Or when you ask, you do not receive because the reason you ask is wrong. You want things so you can use them for your own pleasures.
Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so God can heal you. When a believing person prays, great things happen.
Yes, my dear children, live in him so that when Christ comes back, we can be without fear and not be ashamed in his presence.
