Her co-workers used to laugh at her saying:
"It's been a year since you started praying and God has not answered - not even one prayer of
yours!"
She went home crying.
Unknown to her, something was ALREADY happening in the spirit (out of sight).
Here's Dana in her own words:

"Elisha, its so unfortunate for any one to lose hope in God. What a shame! Before I joined your Prayer Academy, I was despondent, nothing was working out in my life.
Then I joined and you taught me so much. At first for one whole year nothing changed. But I
stuck to my prayers.
I decided to do my midnight prayers every day and instead of starting at midnight, I would start at 23:30 hrs and I would pray until 05 hrs in the morning.
I prayed all the prayers.
And I remember one day dozing at work and I told a friend that it's because I pray till early hrs of the morning and she laughed at me saying:
"It's been a year since you started praying and God has not answered, not even one prayer of yours."
That night I went down on my knees with
tears in my eyes and a very wounded spirit and told my Father that:
"You heard what my friend said that you don't answer my prayers."
But I told the Lord that I will not let go of your robe till you bless me.
At
this stage I had been trying to sell my house with no effect. Then all of a sudden, things started happening.
My house got sold, I got promoted at work and became the head, no interviews. My salary went up to a six figure.
I now drive a Mercedes Benz, paid for, have a good job. And I live in a house worth
1.5 million that when I applied to buy it the price was dropped to 700,000 and the owners complied.
We serve a mighty God. I have come to trust God so much that I have learned through you that He's a good God.
So even when I go through a bad patch, the image that I have of God does
not change, I still kneel down and worship him in all situations.
He's a good God. Now the very friends that were laughing became born again and now refer to me as the praying woman.
I also get calls to go pray for them whenever they are faced with
problems. My life changed as well as the lives of my children.
Am continuing with midnight prayers. They work. And thanks for your emails, please keep them coming."

Praise the LORD.
1 Cor.2:9:
But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love
him.
Please pray like this:
Those laughing me to scorn shall soon see my testimonies with their own eyes in Jesus' name.
Not many days hence, your testimonies will
surprise your friends and shock your enemies.
