If your God be like ours, omnipresent, fall down before him and worship as we do, in every place, and feel certain that everywhere ye will be heard of him!" "The God of Israel hears his people in every place," exclaimed the high-priest.

He chose thy father to be the instrument of our deliverance, and will hear my prayer this day and soften thine heart like wise.
