Do you know that you are God's answer in one form or another? That is just the sure and pure truth. You are an answer from God or to God. How? Read along.
Creator of all things brought everything into existence to serve His desires in one way or another. You are one of them. Do you know that when you pray, asking God for a thing, He answers you that you may add value in one way or another?

One thing that you should register in your heart is how you will gladden the heart of God so that He can rejoice over you for answering your prayers.

Let us draw this point home by briefly examining the story of Prophet Isaiah in the book named after him in chapter six.

The Scriptures do not state the desire of Isaiah's heart as at the time King Uzaiah died. However, the king's death ended up in allowing the Prophet to see his own nakedness and that of the people among whom he was dwelling. In his own words,
"[5]...It’s all over! I am doomed, for I am a sinful man. I have filthy lips, and I live among a people with filthy lips. Yet I have seen the King, the lord of Heaven’s Armies.” Isaiah 6.

What followed was purification of the Prophet by an Angel of God. He reports,
"[6]Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a burning coal he had taken from the altar with a pair of tongs.
[7]He touched my lips with it and said, “See, this coal has touched your lips. Now your guilt is removed, and your sins are forgiven.” Isaiah 6.
After the cleansing, he was fit to carry out a better and acceptable Ministry for the Lord.

After the preparation and purification, he became an answer to God's Desires. Isaiah 6:8 discloses:
"[8]Then I heard the Lord asking, “Whom should I send as a messenger to this people? Who will go for us?” I said, “Here I am. Send me.”
Do you know that if the Lord answers your prayers, it is expected of you to be an answer to His heart's desires? As you have seen in the life of the great Prophet, Isaiah, you now need to be convinced that you are to do likewise.

Do not forget that Preparation and Purification should preceed Performance of God's duty assigned to you. You have to be holy to do the work of an holy God. He wants everyone to take on the initial nature, God's image and likeness, Genesis 1:26. He encouraged father Abraham to walk before Him perfectly, Gen.17:1. Any needs for all these? Yes, there is. Amos 3:3 records,
"[3]Can two people walk together
    without agreeing on the direction?"
For a relationship to run smoothly, people involved must have a point of agreement on which to anchor their intimacy.

Devout, do you want a speedy answer to your prayers, be prepared to be an answer to the desire of God Who will answer you.

Let me not fail to inform or remind you of the barrenness of Hannah. She went through so many insults, reproaches and grief. On the day her pain was rolled away, she asked from God in the right way. How? Read her petition thus,
"[10]Hannah was in deep anguish, crying bitterly as she prayed to the lord.
[11]And she made this vow: “O  lord of Heaven’s Armies, if you will look upon my sorrow and answer my prayer and give me a son, then I will give him back to you. He will be yours for his entire lifetime, and as a sign that he has been dedicated to the lord, his hair will never be cut.” 1 Samuel 1.

This was the single action that brought Samuel into the world to be used of God all his life without blemish. Be prepared to be an answer to God's heart desires. Stay blessed and prepared for the imminent coming of the Lord.
