perpetual state of prayer. Is it any wonder

that David was referred to by God Himself as

“a man after mine own heart” (Acts 13:22)?

Proverbs 15:29 says, “The LORD is far from

the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the

righteous,” and Psalm 66:18 says, “If I regard

iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear

me.” Answered prayer is dependent upon a

right relationship with God, which would

include ongoing confession and forsaking of

sin.
