Does God Still Answer Prayers?

A week ago I asked if God still cares, does He still answer prayers? I really thought about everyone's reply and tried to be more positive. Tonight I know, again all for nothing. God is my savior , my creator, I placed my life in His hands more than 30 years ago. I carried on with life, trying to do right, waiting on God. Every prayer was unanswered, every single time I said maybe next time will be my turn, just wait, God will provide. I am still waiting.... 30 + years...

I am human, I need God. How many years do I have to wait. I know there are others with the same question - Where is God???

Every prayer was unanswered, every time I waited again, this time I really desperately need God's help, I can't turn around again with nothing to carry on with. NOT AGAIN. I do not care about worldly goods, I do not care about money, if I have to accept again, what do I believe in?  I believed in God all my life, life. God did not deliver on one of His promises. How do I lead unbelievers to God? Tell them with tears that maybe God will help them even though He did not help me. 

Again I am human, I do not keep asking people if they reject me every time, how do I carry on begging God for nothing??? At this stage I do not only pray, it is more constant daily conversations with God, trying to understand. Even when I wake up during the night, first thing is talk to God. Am I annoying Him???
 
Isaiah 54:17 (NKJV): No weapon formed against you shall prosper…  Says the LORD

A Prayer For You: https://www.prayerrequest.com/blog/183/entry-17535-prayer-of-protection/

God I ask in Jesus’ name today and for always place a hedge of protection and a wall of fire all around me. Give your angels charge over me to guard, protect, and rescue me from the terror that stalks by night, the weapons that fly by day, and the destruction that devastates at noon. Let no evil nor any afflictions come near me nor my dwelling place. Be my refuge, fortress, my ever present help in the time of trouble. Cover me under Your wings. Cause me to lie down in peace and sleep. O Lord You make me to dwell in safety. Lord You be the watchman over my life, family, and home.

God You arise in my life and cause my enemies to be scattered. Fight against all those who fight against me. Take hold of Your weapons Lord Jesus. Draw out Your sword and wound the head of my enemies. Say to my soul, I am your salvation. I will protect you.

Vindicate me O Lord my God, according to Your righteousness. Do not let my enemies rejoice over me. Let no weapon form against me prosper. Utterly destroy all the evil plans of my enemies. Disappoint, humiliate, and cause my enemies to be greatly ashamed. Distract, frustrate, and confuse their minds. Cause them to turn on themselves. Into the very destruction that they planned for me, let them fall. Trouble my enemies in their sleep and during the day. Let them say, “I will have nothing to do with this just person: for I have suffered many things in dreams because of them.â€

Cause me to be victorious, honor me with excellent health, and a long healthy prosperous, productive life in Christ Jesus. Let the mind that is in Christ Jesus be in me. Bless me with wisdom, knowledge, and understanding. Teach me how to war in the Holy Spirit through faith, trust in You, Your Word, obedience, prayer, fasting, praise, and worship unto You. Let me adopt the “God Only†strategy of warfare.

God save, deliver, and cause my enemies to come to know You, love You, and walk in obedience to Your Word and Will for their lives. Cause them to change their way of living. Let their lifestyle be shaped by the Word of God. Cause them to walk in the love and integrity of Christ Jesus. God all that I have asked of You in this prayer, please do the same for the writer of the prayer, all those I love, and care about. Thank You Lord Jesus for answering this prayer with a yes, so be it, and it is so. Amen.

If u have iniquity in ur heart, God will not answer your prayer. If u doubt or don't believe. And u must forgive others, if u hold unforgiveness in ur heart he won't hear that prayer either. There are also things that hinder God: Uncleanleness hinders God, doubt, and lastly sometimes we must ask for God's Will and not Self Will. 
 
Lord Jesus, we cry out for the Father's mercy. We cry out for deeper revelations from you, about you and about your will, and especially about how you love us. I ask that your great love would convict each of us to repentance, and that we would choose to be Christ's love to all who have sinned against us because of how greatly we have sinned against you. You forgive a multitude of sins, I ask that we would likewise be gracious and merciful. I ask that your holy fire will fill our hearts and let us truly understand our adopted sonship. Let us no longer have identity crises and have a form of Godliness but devoid of power. I ask in Jesus name, that the Holy Spirit come fill us with grace and empower us to live a life worthy of the Father. In Jesus name, amen.
 
God bless you as I will pray for you in Jesus name and loving heart. May He watch over you and help you with the prayers you are asking for. Praise God. Jesus love all of us. Amen
 
Your post touched my heart and my prayer is that our Lord reveals Himself to you in a God sized way.

Scripture has been given and also that unanswered prayer is the result of sin and iniquity , while others will argue asking contrary to God’s will. Your answer is in the scripture, not one of us is perfect, guiltless or sinless, it is for that reason we must come to the Father, our creator through Christ, who took our sins upon Himself and gave up His life, that for those who believe this is true, shall have life, in Him. It is our faith that pleases  God, and is counted as righteousness.

Our walk is a battle against the lies of the devil and one is “our sinâ€, there is truth in that, for we are sinners, but it is through Christ, God’s grace forgives us our sins. Walk in that grace! Yes we stumble, we fall and we fail, it is then that Christ helps us up, brushes us off and bids us to try again. And this is when we are to come together to help one another. What I have found in scripture, they lived, moved and worshiped together, a community!

The word says, you are beloved, blessed and highly favored, may His peace embrace you today.
 
Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
