It is SO EASY for us to dismiss God's voice, even when in prayer. Satan, the great deciever, sends us distractions. I pray that God will open your ears for you to hear HIS voice, that he opens your eyes to see HIS vision.
Lord, open her heart to not only hear you but ACCEPT your word as true (especially if the answers are not what her heart desires to hear). Lord, we denounce the attacks of satan, we denounce our own distractions and thoughts. Lord, we submit ONLY unto you and the TRUTHS that you would have us here. Protect us as we pray, guide us closer to you during this fast....turning our ears to only your voice.

Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger; for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God. Therefore put away all filthiness and rampant wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror. ...

Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs. For to which of the angels did God ever say, “You are my Son, today I have begotten you� Or again, “I will be to him a father, and he shall be to me a son�
