In this post, you are going to discover the 11 signs God is answering your prayers that will clearly show indeed God is answering every prayer request you are making to Him.
Very often in life as Christians, we may find ourselves doubting as to why our prayers are being answered or not, especially if they are taking too long to materialize.
But one thing I can tell you is that God always hears and answers prayers His dear Children make to Him as He hears the cries of His righteous children.
In both the Old Testament in the case of the Israelites and the New Testament during the early church, we can see countless examples of God answering prayer request His children made to Him at that time.
With that said, let’s look at the 11 signs God is answering your prayers that will remind you that God hasn’t turned a blind eye to your prayer requests.
11 Signs God Is Answering Your Prayers.
Below are the 11 clear signs that God is answering your prayers, which will clearly show that your prayers are indeed being attended to by heaven.
- You Feel God’s Presence.
- Divine Breakthroughs.
- Your Christian Faith Strengthens.
- You Feel Spiritually Stronger.
- You Experience Divine Healing.
- You Become A Changed Person.
- You Receive Peace.
- Your Heart Desires Get Granted.
- You Hear God Speaking To You Audibly.
- You Receive Godly Counsel.
- God Establishing Your Plans.
1. You Feel God’s Presence.
One of the signs that will show God is answering your prayers in that you will feel God’s presence upon your life through His Holy Spirit if you are a true believer as the reassurance that God is with you as He’s promised in Exodus 33:14-16. It’s this God’s presence in your life that will assure you that your prayers are being answered. On the other hand, if your prayers have not been answered due to one reason or the other such as unconfessed sin, you won’t feel the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ in your life.
2. Divine Breakthroughs.
Another sign that will show God has answered your prayer requests is that you will receive unprecedented divine breakthroughs in your life you have been praying for a long time. So, if you are praying for a breakthrough in your life be it financial, marital, or spiritual, be assured that your breath through is coming and that you will receive your divine breakthrough in due time because we serve a God who answers prayer as 1 Peter 3:12 tells us.
3. Your Christian Faith Strengthens.
When you receive answers to your prayer request you made to God your faith will grow stronger as well, which means that when things get tough, you know God has your back, no matter what happens next. Having answered prayers in your Christian life as a believer elates your faith because it reminds you that God is faithful and He will never lie by not answering your prayers if they are in line with His will as Numbers 23:19 tells us as He’s not a son of man to do that.

4. You Feel Spiritually Stronger.
When we are open to receiving God’s grace and favor through prayer, we become stronger over time because we have a better understanding of who God really is through Jesus Christ. We grow together as people who love God with all our hearts as Mark 12:30 commands us to do. Answered prayers always bring spiritual strength such as having a strong prayer life or increased grace to believers that will motivate them to be strong in the Lord.

5. You Experience Divine Healing.
Healing be it physical or spiritual is another confirmation that you will receive as a Christian when God answers your prayer requests concerning healing especially if you are sick and want to be healed. The Bible in James 5:14 tells us if anyone is sick in the body of Christ, they can call for anyone such as church pastors or elders to pray for them to be healed. You need to remember that Jesus Christ is also our healer apart from being our savior who gives us salvation by saving us from sin as He healed many people in His time and He’s still doing so today if you pray to Him by faith.
6. You Become A Changed Person.
Being a changed person and a new creation in Christ Jesus that 2 Corinthians 5:17 talks about is another sign that will show God has answered your prayers especially if your prayer was about salvation and repentance to obtain mercy and forgiveness for your sins. This is especially true if you have been praying for God to change your life so that you quit your old sinful habits or addictions that are slowly ruining your life. If you struggle with such, Jesus Christ can still deliver you from such and set you free if you sincerely surrender your life to Him in repentance.

7. You Receive Peace.
Receiving the peace that surpasses all understanding that this world cannot ever hope to give you that Jesus Christ talks about in John 14:27 is another proof that will show He’s answered your prayers especially if you have been praying for peace in your life. When God gives you peace, there is that unexplainable calmness and stillness that will be in your life no matter what you are going through or raging storms in your life as you know nothing will happen to you as God is with you.
8. Your Heart Desires Get Granted.
In Psalms 37:4, the psalmist David encourages us to delight ourselves in the Lord if we want Him to grant our deepest desires and longings of our hearts we all have that are different for every individual person on earth which could be marriage, healing, getting a financial breakthrough, etc. Delighting in the Lord simply means that our hearts truly find peace, fulfillment, and satisfaction in Him. It also means that we are happy living lives that please the Lord and focusing on the eternal perspective of our lives.
9. You Hear God Speaking To You Audibly.
God speaking to you audibly either through His word or visions and dreams will be another proof that will indicate that God is answering your prayers. The most common method God speaks to us is through His word and when He answers your prayer requests you make to Him, He will confirm your answer with His word. Deuteronomy 8:3 tells us that we must live of every word that proceeds from God’s mouth and not on bread alone. This is why it’s important to ground yourself in God’s word if you want God to answer your prayers as He mainly answers prayer through His spoken word.

10. You Receive Godly Counsel.
The other sign that will show God is answering your prayer request, especially of sensitive life issues such as those of your career or choosing a suitable life partner to share or spend the rest of your life with is through godly counseling. God sends godly counselors to guide and counsel you so that you don’t mess your life up. Proverbs 11:14 tells us in the multitude of godly counselors, that there is safety but where there is no counsel people stumble and fall. We all need godly counseling in our lives by spiritually matured godly counselors who can advise us against certain life decisions that can ruin our lives if we make them.
11. God Establishing Your Plans.
Last but not least, God establishing your plans that align with His will and purpose for your life seeing that they all come to fruition is another indicator that will show God is answering your prayers about certain plans you want God to fulfill and establish concerting your life. Proverbs 16:3 tells us that we must commit all our plans to the Lord if we want them to be established and not fall through because even the best-laid plans that are not planned with God in mind fail.
Conclusion.
I hope the above 11 signs God is answering your prayers will now help you understand that God always answers prayer so that you don’t lose your faith and realize that God answers prayers in different ways you may not have thought of.
