A Prayer for God to Reply
By Tiffany Thibault
“However you, O Lord, are a protect about me, my glory, and the lifter of my head. I cried aloud to the Lord, and he answered me from his holy hill. Psalm 3:3-4
I like that this Bible verse begins with the phrase “however.” Although such a bit phrase, it refers again to conditions which can be overwhelming the author, to the difficulty he was having along with his enemies, and to absolutely the hopelessness of his having the ability to survive only one thing more.
As an alternative of despairing about his troubles, after which sinking right into a deeper despair, he begins to talk reality into his life. He focuses his subsequent phrases on the one one who may help him. The Lord. He says: “However you, O Lord, are…” He reminds himself of who alone may help him—the Lord.
However you, O Lord, are a protect about me. The Lord is a defending protect to us in our day by day battles. Our enemy, Devil, is utilizing something and anybody he can to attempt to put on us down, to make our life tough, and to destroy us. However the Lord is our protect. Ephesians 6:16 tells us: “In all circumstances take up the protect of religion.” Our religion within the Lord is the protect that may shield us. Cling to this reality, and tightly maintain onto your religion as you face your battles.
However you, O Lord, are my glory. It’s the Lord who’s his glory. It’s the Lord who provides his life that means. It’s the Lord alone who makes him important. It is not the truth that this author is the King of Israel, or that he has palaces, status or has many kids. It’s the Lord alone. In our lives right now, on this trendy world, it is not fame, cash, relationships or social standing that provides us worth, however it’s the Lord alone and his presence in our life that really provides us significance.
However you, O Lord, are the lifter of my head. All too usually, a lot is thrown at us that our head simply naturally bows down from its weight. Our hearts turn into heavy and we battle to search out the constructive in our lives and ideas. It’s in occasions corresponding to these that we should remind ourselves that it’s the Lord alone who’s the lifter of our head. He’s the one one who can provide us hope within the darkness, and the one one who can strengthen us as we trudge by way of our weary occasions.
However you, O Lord, reply me. How encouraging to remind ourselves that the Lord solutions us. He solutions us in fact, which ignites our religion, and provides hope to our future as we wait on Him to maneuver in highly effective methods in each space of our wants.
In order we undergo our day, could we relaxation on this reality: the Lord is our protect, our glory, the lifter of our head, and He’ll hear our each cry and He’ll reply. We should communicate these phrases of reality and strengthen our religion based mostly on our understanding of who God is and the way He has helped us prior to now.
Let’s pray:
Expensive Lord,
Thanks for the phrases of this verse. Thanks that you’re my safety, my that means for residing, my hope giver within the midst of my struggles. Thanks that I can cry out to you and that you simply hear my prayer, that you simply take heed to my phrases, and that you simply reply my cry to you. I like you Lord. I’ll cling to the promise of those phrases and transfer ahead in my day resting in your safety, in my significance to you and within the hope that you simply fill my coronary heart with. Flood me along with your peace and open my eyes to alternatives to share the reality of this scripture with these round me.
