Pray, not until God hears you, but until you hear God.

Thinking that God doesn’t hear us when we pray is a misnomer. He doesn’t hide Himself from us, (Isaiah 30:21) in fact, God tells us, “Before they call I will answer; while they are yet speaking I will hear.” So the real problem lies in our listening. In John, Jesus admonished us to “Listen to My Voice.” (John 10:16) and that, “My sheep hear My Voice and obey.” So why don’t we hear God? It all lies in the need to quiet ourselves in order to hear His Voice…and this involves calming and quieting our soul and waiting quietly for the Salvation of the Lord. (Psalm 131:2 & Lamentations 3:26)
