2 Samuel 22:7

When You Cry Out, He’ll Hear

04/29/2023

Do you have children or have you ever babysat? Think for a moment to a time when a child cried for you. Maybe they were in their crib. Or perhaps you heard a thud, then the cry of a toddler who had fallen. What happened at the moment they cried out? Their voice “came into your ears.” I love the way that just as a child’s cry “comes into our ears,” the psalmist, David, worded that our cries “come into God’s ears.” Second Samuel 22:7  says, “In my distress, I called upon the Lord. Yes, I cried to my God, and from His temple, He heard my voice, and my cry for help came into His ears.” Yes, just as we can hear a child’s cry even if we’re in another part of the house, so God hears our cry from His temple. Our cries to God go into His ears. Our Heavenly Father is a HEARING GOD, not a deaf God. What will you cry out to Him about today?

Hearing Father, thank You for listening to our cries. Help us also listen to You.

Do you have children or have you ever babysat? Think for a moment to when a child cried. Maybe they were in their crib. Or, perhaps you heard a thud; then the cry of a toddler who had fallen. What happened in the moment  they cried out? Their voice “came into your ears.” I love the way that David worded 2 Samuel 22:7, “In my distress I called upon the Lord. Yes, I cried to my God and from His temple He heard my voice, and my cry for help came into His ears.” In the same way a child’s cry can be heard by us even if we’re in another part of the house, so God hears our cry from His temple. Our cries to God go into His ears. Our Heavenly Father is a HEARING GOD, not a deaf God. What will you cry out to Him about today?

Hearing Father, thank You for listening to our cries. Help us pay attention and hear Your voice in response to our cries.

Praise to Our HEARING GOD

HEARS MY VOICE

07/23/2013

“’In my distress I called upon the Lord, Yes, I cried to my God; And from His temple He heard my voice, And my cry for help came into His ears.’” 

2 Samuel 22:7

Are you at your wits end? Do you feel like you’re about to lose it? Yes, at times, even strong Christians can feel overwhelmed. Life can come at us hard and we don’t know what to do. Although those times feel awful to us and sometimes are awful, they don’t surprise or overwhelm God. Cry to Him for help. In your distress, call on God like you would call a friend on your phone. Talk to God about your problems. KNOW that He hears your voice. Isn’t that incredible? Realizing that can bring a sense of peace to your spirit and maybe even a smile to your face.

LORD, I’m amazed that You HEAR MY VOICE. Thank You for the blessing and peace it brings to know that You do.  

God HEARS YOUR VOICE. After crying out to Him, record your prayers in Prayers of My Heart. Then, as He answers your prayers, write “PTL” for “Praise the Lord” beside the answer. Or highlight and date it. At the end of the year, you’ll be able to look back and reflect on God’s faithfulness to you.
