But I am poor and needy; Yet the Lord thinks upon me, You are my help and my deliverer; Do not delay, O my God. Psalm 40:17

 

If you are like the average person, it’s not too long into the day that you have a certain need, maybe you received an unexpected bill and no way to pay it, a diagnosis that isn’t good and you need assurance that everything is gonna be ok, you got word of a loved one whose going through a rough patch and it breaks you heart for them. The list is endless, but we all have moments where we need help, we need our Savior and Lord God.

 

Today’s passage was written by a man in much need. David, as a young man, was on the run from a jealous king who wanted him dead. Hiding in caves and always fearful for His life, he was in much need of God’s protection. His prayer life was amped up 10 fold. I can expect by the Psalms of David that he remained in a constant state of prayer.

 

Blessed is he who considers the poor; The Lord will deliver him in time of trouble. Psalm 41:1

 

What is troubling your heart today? You may be poor in spirit, feeling depressed and helpless, but GOD! He sees your troubled soul and thinks upon you. Call out to Him today and He will bring peace and comfort into your life and help you in the time of trouble. Call on Him today! God bless!
