Success in prayer

Success in prayer - Daniel 9:23

Daniel’s life pleased God.  The background for our two scriptures is that Daniel was interceding for His nation.  He did this with, prayer, petition, fasting and sackcloth and ashes.  Gabriel came and told him in Dan 9:23, that as soon as you began to pray an answer was given.  
    Daniel was told he was highly esteem by God.  You meet the conditions prayer and you will always be successful.  Daniel was also aware of two other things.  First, that prayer could be delayed.  In our second scripture Dan 10:12.  That as soon as Daniel words were uttered they were heard by God.  Yet it took 3 weeks for the answer to come because of demonic hindrance.  The demonic prince of Persia had stopped Gabriel so Michael came to help.  
     Never be discouraged if prayer takes a while there are reasons.  Jesus taught about being persistent, to keep on asking and hold onto the word. Daniel was also aware of other hindrances.   So go and take your world today in prayer.
