SUNDAY 18TH

GOD HEARS YOU AT ALL TIME

Psalm 55: 7 (NIV), “Evening, morning and noon I cry out in distress, and He hears my voice.”

Our anchor Scripture make one picture vivid to us. God is willing to hear our voice; but the issue is this, are we ready to cry out? Some people think that God hears prayers only in the early hours of the morning and late at night because He is busy at noon time. The truth is there is that there are no time barriers that can block the ears of God towards your heartfelt prayers. Some others even think that prayer is not an important  spiritual exercise  hence they have an ideology that prayers is reserved for Sundays, or when they are in crisis or before meals.

This is not supposed to be so, the psalmist makes understand that even when the sun has gone to sleep and the moon is shining brightly in the beautiful sky, we can still talk to God. Imagine stopping for a moment in the heat of the sun during the day to whisper sweet words of love to your Maker, or waking up in the morning realizing that God has given you another day. Praying therefore becomes a lifestyle, praying should not be stressful and you will find your heart longing for more of God, your spirit surging with gratitude and your soul enveloped by pure love.

God is no tired of listening to you. Every step of the way, every time He has graciously given you – evening, noon or morning – He longs to hear your voice. Even in time of distress or trouble, if you cry out, be assured that He will hear your voice and give you answers.
