In Psalm 65 we are reminded and challenged by the words, "O You who hear prayer, to you all men come." The reality that God actually hears our prayers is incentive for us to come to Him in every situation. Do we personally believe that God hears our prayers? Does our belief translate into behavior? The issue is not a matter of praying because we "ought" to pray, but praying because we "need" to pray, we recognize our frailty and God's glorious majesty. We take joy in knowing that God is in control and we come needy and expectant, dependent and confident.

The rest of the Psalm extols God's great works in our lives and in creation. All of His "awesome deeds" (vs.5) prove His power and wonderful control of all nature. He is in control and He hears our prayers so it is natural that "all men come" to Him.

Our reluctance to pray is only a testimony of our arrogance.
