I Call On You,

For You

Will Answer Me

Incline your ear, O LORD, and answer me, for I am poor and needy. Preserve my life, for I am devoted to you; save your servant who trusts in you. You are my God; be gracious to me, O Lord, for to you do I cry all day long. Gladden the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, I lift up my soul. For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call on you. Give ear, O Lord, to my prayer; listen to my cry of supplication. In the day of my trouble I call on you, for you will answer me.

Psalm 86:1-7

Whenever we call out to God in prayer, He hears us. Do not doubt it. Accept it, and acknowledge that He knows you, and He knows everything about you. He knows your cries of anguish and your praise for Him. He knows all your secrets. He knows you inside and out.

There is never an honest prayer that is lost on Him. He has heard each and every one of them. We can cast all our cares on our Lord, even if no one else prays for us. Know that when you call on Him, He will answer you.

Jesus hears our faintest cry.
