After the brother of Jared prayed, the Lord let Jared’s family and friends keep the same language. Jared didn’t know what to do next, so he asked his brother to pray again.

The brother of Jared prayed again and asked the Lord if they should stay near Jerusalem or find a new place. He asked the Lord to carry them ‘into a land which is choice above all the earth.’

The Lord heard the brother of Jared’s prayer and told Jared to gather flocks, seeds, their families and friends and meet Him in a northern valley. The Lord said, ‘I will go before thee into a land which is choice above all the lands of the earth.’

The Lord said they would be blessed with a great nation in the choice land because they prayed.

I am a child of God. The Lord wants to answer my prayers, and He will.

How many times can children of God pray to the Lord for help?

When God’s children pray, do they always get what they want?
