Answered Prayer

“I prayed, and the Lord has granted me my petition which I asked of Him.

I sought the Lord and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. * God, who answered me in the day of my distress and has been with me in the way which I have gone. * I love the Lord, because He has heard my voice and my supplications. Because He has inclined His ear to me, therefore I will call upon Him as long as I live. * My heart trusted in Him, and I am helped; therefore my heart greatly rejoices, and with my song I will praise Him. * Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me. Whoever offers praise glorifies Me.

Come and hear, all you who fear God, and I will declare what He has done for my soul. I cried to Him with my mouth. God has heard me; He has attended to the voice of my prayer. Blessed be God, who has not turned away my prayer, nor His mercy from me. * I thank you and praise You, O God of my fathers; You have given me wisdom and might, and have now made known to me what we asked of You. * My heart rejoices in the Lord.”
