Prayer Journey — Cry Out and Be Heard

Posted on by Chris G Thelen

The world is a tough taskmaster. It beats me down; takes away my self confidence; afflicts me with doubt. I am plagued by worry of what is to come. Fatigue overtakes me as demands increase. Brick by brick I struggle to keep up. I cry out to the Lord, seeking His salvation.

The LORD said, “I have surely seen the affliction of My people who are in Egypt, and have given heed to their cry because of their taskmasters, for I am aware of their sufferings (Exodus 3:7, NASB).”

Fall before the Lord and seek relief from your affliction. This world tries to consume you, but He cannot be consumed. The Lord God is eternal, an ever present help. Remove your sandals for before you is holy ground. He is the great I Am, “the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob (3:6).” He is your God. Come before Him. He seeks you. He hears your cries for help.

When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” Many were sternly telling him to be quiet, but he kept crying out all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me (Mark 10:47-48)!”

“The LORD, the God of your fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is My name forever, and this is My memorial-name to all generations (Exodus 3:15).”

  2. Pastor Alistair Begg, Parkside Church, this Sunday spoke from Acts 4: 28,29: “. . .to do whatever your hand and your plan had predestined to take place. And now, Lord, look upon their threats and grant to your servants to continue to speak your word with all boldness. . .”

    Amidst the persecution, threats, Believers cried aloud to our L-RD for salvation, for boldness, for abilities to overcome and speak His Truth.

    Other Christian bloggers, recently, have written similar messages.

    In these times of troubles, foreshadowing perhaps the Days of Jacob’s Troubles, we are called to abide in Yeshua and be bold and speak the Gospel in words and our lives.

    May our L-RD Bless you, Keep Watch over you, Shine upon you, and grant you ShalomPeace.
