God Listened – Manna by Dorothy & Tony Callies
Theme: God has listened to you and I have come because of your prayers.

Daniel 10:11-14 NCV: “Gabriel, the
Angel was speaking to Daniel in a vision.”
V11 The man in the vision said to me, “Daniel, God loves you very much. Think carefully about the words I will speak to you, and stand up, because I have been sent to you.” When he said this, I stood up, but I was still shaking.

V12 Then the
man said to me, “Daniel, DO NOT BE AFRAID. Sometimes ago you decided to get
understanding and to humble yourself before your God. Since that time GOD HAS
LISTENED TO YOU, and I have come because of your prayers.
V13 But the
prince of Persia has been fighting against me for twenty-one days. Then
Michael, one of the most important angels, came to help me, because I had been
left there with the king of Persia.
V14 Now I have
come to explain to you what will happen to your people, because the vision is
about a time in the future.”
Daniel was encouraged as this angel called him, “a man greatly beloved” and told him, “Fear not”. God loves Daniel for his love and faithfulness to Him. Daniel had a house in Babylonia and he went to pray in an upstairs room which had windows that opened toward Jerusalem. Three times each day Daniel would kneel down to pray and thank God, just as he faithfully had done. This was probably why Daniel was a man that God really loved him.
Do you ever felt like that your prayers were not always heard? Be of good cheer, God has heard your prayers. He is saying, “Fear not, I have heard all of your prayers.” Like Jesus said, “men ought always to pray and not to faint” [Luke 18:1]. Keep praying and thanking Him will keep us in touch with God and He will called you, “a child of greatly beloved.”

Keep thanking Him like Daniel did to
God three times a day. Remember, Daniel was taken captive from his homeland,
Jerusalem about 500 miles or more to Babylonia where he stayed. Yet, Daniel had
an excellent spirit in him because he thanked God three times a day. Let this
Word of God encourage our hearts to thank Him daily.
