Do you believe God will answer your prayers? Do you trust that He cares about you? (Dan. 9:20-23) Pastor/Professor Andrew Marquez considers the swift response God provided to Daniel's prayer through the angel Gabriel. By prayer, Daniel gained God's ear. He received help in a hurry. An angel relayed the Divine answer of understanding. Gabriel called Daniel "Beloved" or "Precious One." Will you pray today as Daniel did, recognizing your status precious in God's sight?
