First talk to God

Luke 18:1-8

1. Why may we sometimes seem not to receive answers to our prayers?

It is because we are not persistent with our prayers.

For even the judge who neither feared God nor cared about men decided to find justice for the persistent widow, will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off?

God will see that they get justice, and quickly.

Philippians 4:4-6

2. How did Paul link prayer and praise?

Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near.

Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
