15 Bible Verses that show that God Answers Prayer
There is a sweet story in the Bible where God answered Hezekiah's prayer instantly. The Lord had sent Prophet Isaiah to King Hezehiak to inform him to prepare his house and get ready to die.
But, immediately King Hezekiah heard the fearful tiding from Isaiah, he turn his face wall and cried to God for a second chance, and God answered him immediately. In 2 Kings 20: 1-6, the Bible says:
In those days Hezekiah became ill and was at the point of death. The prophet Isaiah son of Amoz went to him and said, "This is what the LORD says: Put your house in order, because you are going to die; you will not recover."
Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and prayed to the LORD, "Remember O LORD, how I have walked before you faithfully and with wholehearted devotion and have done what is good in your eyes." And Hezekiah wept bitterly.
Before Isaiah had left the middle court, the word of the LORD came to him: "Go back and tell Hezekiah, the leader of my people, `This is what the LORD, the God of your father David, says: I have heard your prayer and seen your tears; I will heal you. On the third day from now you will go up to the temple of the LORD.
I will add fifteen years to your life. And I will deliver you and this city from the hand of the king of Assyria. I will defend this city for my sake and for the sake of my servant David.'"
