Does God always answer our prayers?

Today we will examine the prophet Daniel's prayer and how God answered him in Daniel 10.

     B. The Identity of the Man

III. God's Answers: When Prayer Seems Delayed, Daniel 10:10-14

When prayer seems delayed, remember

     A. You are greatly loved,

     B. You are heard

     C. Prayer is Spiritual Warfare

IV. Daniel’s Comfort, 14-21

Through Prayer, Daniel found comfort:

     A. In the presence of God

     B. In the sovereignty of God

     C. In the words of God, vs 19

Things to Remember:

1. Persevere in Prayer, even when there seems to be no answer.

I Thess. 5:17: “Pray without ceasing.”

     2. Prayer is a vital part of spiritual warfare.

Ephesians 5:18 "Praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. To that end, keep alert with all perseverance, making supplication for all the saints,"

     3. Prayer brings the assurance of God’s love and care during difficult times

I Peter 5:7 “Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.”
