Hearing is different from listening. Hearing does not require a response, but when there is a two-way conversation, the listener is expected to respond.
In Jeremiah 29:12 God says, "when you pray to Me, I will listen to you". So, when God says He will listen to our prayers, we expect Him to respond as well.
In Jeremiah 33:3, God says, call to Me and I will answer you". Now, if the response does not come immediately and there is a silence, then silence is God's answer. Accept it in faith believing God did answer, just as He said He would.
