The Lord our God is merciful and hears the cries of the needy. All who call upon Him with sincerity of heart, he will hear. A haughty and a proud heart the Lord will not hear, but of those with a humble and contrite heart he will hear. In our distress and times of need the Lord will not abandon us, but will help, sustain and deliver us. David call upon the Lord to deliver him from the oppression of his enemies and to deal with them on his behalf. We too can do the same and God will certainly hear and answer. We need to come to God in humility as we seek his face and commune with him with our prayers and supplications. As we see the works of the Lord, we will rejoice, and in so doing others can be encouraged and come to know the God we serve. We can only seek God through Christ, where we can find him. We can only come to God through Christ. As believers, we will encounter hardships and cruelty; adversaries and persecutions because of our fidelity to God. However, when we put our trust and confidence in Him, humble ourselves before his presence, he will revive and strengthen us as we rejoice in our trials. We have to experience Christ in our lives and trust in Him to help us through times of persecutions and troublesome times. Giving thanks and praise to God in these times will strengthen us and will encourage others going through similar situations to totally put their trust in God and be revived. When we humble ourselves and see the salvation of the Lord, we will rejoice and be glad; we will live because we humbly seek God. When the poor and needy, who trusts in the Lord, as we do, see how God has delivered us from our enemies, they will be encouraged and rejoice in Him. Let us in our struggles and difficulties humble ourselves, rejoice and seek God that we may live.
Have a wonderful day 🌹🌹

The Lord is our Provider and knows all that we are in need of before we even ask. We do not need to worry or fret ourselves about what we shall eat or drink. Our Father in heaven will take care of these things we need. We are told by Jesus, 'To seek first the kingdom of God.' What does that mean? It means we should lean on, and trust in the grace of Jesus Christ. We should repent of our sins and have a desire to turn away from it. We should seek to put God first in our praise to Him, in our worship of Him, to put our total trust in Him and to rely on Him rather than ourselves or others. We need to seek Him first in our reassurance and acknowledging who He is and what He can do. We also need to seek God's righteousness by loving our neighbors and feeding the poor and destitute, seek justice for the vulnerable. We should put God's plan and
