We may believe that God responds to all prayers.  After reading Proverbs 15:29, "The Lord is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous, " I saw that it is the prayer of the righteous that God chooses to hear.  To be righteous means to be in right standing with God.  What do you believe to be right before God?  A few points that come to mind from scripture are that God is well pleased with his Son/Seed, that all things were made by and for him, and that his plans and purposes are his priority. 

All things will bow to the name of Yahshua, that is will be 2nd to, for Yahshua has been given preeminence, is 1st and foremost, the head of all things.  This verse means that EVERYTHING is centered on Jesus.  This Jesus is in YOU.  All things that are against or not focused on manifesting Christ in you, are moved to the bottom or off God's "to-do list." I know this because Jesus is the name above all names.  Names have purpose!  The purpose that Jesus has and everyone in Jesus, this many-membered body, is commissioned to bring Salvation to our God (Revelation 7:10).  This is revealed in Ancient Hebrew for Righteous.  The word Righteous in Hebrew is spelled with the letters Tsade, Dalet, and  Qof.  These 3 letters create the image of a Righteous person.  Who is this righteous person?  This person is he/she that "desires to be the door/entrance/means to manifesting and producing Yahshua.  Those who are God's righteousness on the Earth will be producing Christ Jesus.  It is Christ in us, the hope of Glory and Salvation.

In Conclusion, if God's focus is on manifesting Christ in the Earth, through you, his mind and ears are tuned in to hear that which is in accordance to bringing about Christ.  Think of it as a filter.  This is why we pray "In the name of Jesus." "Jesus," is not merely a name, it is a mindset, an office of Sonship, a Work of Salvation, a Commission of Reconciliation.  If our life, motive, purpose, plan, desire, wants, and goals do not line up with the heart of God in Yahshua, it will be filtered out and unheard and unfulfilled.  It is written that if you pray and ask in the "name of Jesus," he will do it.  The only remaining question is what is in his name?  The perfect will of God is in Christ Jesus.  So, may we spend time with the Father and grow in Christ Jesus, so that we may be One with this NAME!  Our words will not fall to the ground or come back void, our petitions and prayers shall be HEARD, for we are WORD made flesh, the manifestation of the Son of God, and His perfect will in the Earth.  The more we spend time with the Father, the more we too, will only say what he says, do what he does, and think how he thinks.  He is always for His Word, not against us or for us, but for his WORD.  Amen...
