Book of 2 SamuelSample
GOD HEARS OUR PRAYER
Problems are part of everyone’s life. Everyone, whether they are old or young, will experience problems and so did David. Being a king doesn’t mean his life was easy. From the Bible we learn that Absalom, David’s own son, rebelled against his father, wanting to make himself king. Absalom even wanted to kill David to become the king of Israel.
David knew that he had a God who wouldn’t keep quiet about the craftiness planned for him. God protected David and gave him wisdom: where to run to in order to save himself. God also gave David faithful servants along the escape and at the end, God returned the kingdom of Israel to David. During his distress, David kept crying out to God, seeking God’s help, proving that the Lord he worshiped was not a deaf or dead God. The God David served is a God who keeps His ears open to the cry of His people and is able to do anything to help those who call on His name, include you and me.
We have learned the walk David had with God. Today, the God we worship and trust is still the same God. Therefore we do not need to worry and stumble, or give up when we face problems in this life journey. God’s power never changed yesterday, today and until forever. He remains the Lord over everyone’s life and everything is within His control.
He is the Lord who answers the prayer of everyone who calls on His name.
