Hear my prayer, O Lord. Listen to my pleas. Answer me because you are faithful and righteous. Psalm 143:1 NLT.
David, writing this psalm, used three verbs "hear", "listen", and "answer" when he is talking/praying to God. David knows God is not passive but alive. He knows he is praying to a deity that is real - not manmade. He knows God is hearing and listening and will answer his prayer in God's timing because he knew God was faithful and righteous. He could trust God. We too can trust God. He listens when we pray. He hears our pleas. He will answer them the way He chooses to for His glory in His perfect timing and will. Remember that and rest in that promise.
