Does God hear the prayers of sinners and unbelievers?

Key messages

Psalm 65

God is not deaf.
Unlike idols that have ears and cannot hear, God hears even the meditations of your heart.
Every prayer you prayed is heard by God.
There is a difference between hearing prayer and responding to prayer.
God hears your prayers immediately, but He may not respond to your prayers immediately.
Sometimes ago, I prayed to God to receive the payment for a job I did. For several months, the payment was not made, and it was as if God did not hear the prayers.
When the payment was eventually made, I thank God for the delay because the value of the payment made in hard currency has increased.
Your duty is to pray, and God will respond to the prayer at a divine time.
