Bible Verse of The Day – 2-9-18

Psalm 57:2 (NKJV) 2 I will cry out to God Most High, To God who performs all things for me.

Oh Lord, do you hear me down here? This is what we’d like to ask Him sometimes. We usually don’t, though, because we are afraid to address Him in such a manner.

But understand, God would want us to be respectfully honest with Him. He already knows what we are thinking and feeling.

One may say, “well, if He already knows, then why do we have to say it?”.

Because, it’s not for His benefit, but for ours. When we say something, or confess it with our mouth, what happens? We hear ourselves speak.

It’s important to hear what we are asking for, just as it’s important to hear what God is saying back to us. If we are a believer, a child of God, He absolutely hears our cry in that moment.

One day in the not-too-distant past, I was at the hospital. I kept receiving bad news regarding a family member. It was one thing after another. It was hitting me so hard, all at once. I had gotten to the point where all I could say was, “Oh Lord.”

But even in those two small words, God heard me. He knew what I needed and He answered my cry.

Don’t stop crying out to Him. Keep talking to Him. If we have questions, we need to ask Him. He is listening.

Don’t ever give up on Him answering us back. He is faithful, He is kind and compassionate. And He performs all things for us!
