GOT TROUBLES? GOD HEARS YOUR CRY: Psalm 34:17-18

"The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them;
     he delivers them from all their troubles. 
 The LORD is close to the  brokenhearted
     and saves those who are crushed in spirit."
 Psalm 34:17-18

Before I mention anything else I want to remind you that you ARE righteous in Christ (if he is your Savior and Lord) according to I Corinthians 1:30. Christ is YOUR righteousness. 

Cry out to  God. What ever is happening in or to your life. Cry out to God. David says that if we cry out to God he will hear us and he will deliver us. Remembering that David was a wanted man. His death was the assurance that King Saul needed to keep his throne. So, that kind of crying out that we are talking about here is life or death crying out. And God delivered him. 

How you doing? Are you feeling brokenhearted? Are you crushed in spirit? Cry out to God. He hears you. Sometimes it takes a crisis to remove all the encumbrances from our lives. When you have exhausted every other avenue and only God is left. He hears and he acts. 

If you are feeling brokenhearted and or crushed in spirit, God has a special place next to him for you. Just know, he hears and he will deliver you.

Father, thank you that in Christ we are righteous and you do hear us and will deliver us from all our troubles. Thank you for all the troubles you have delivered me from. Praise be to you in us today!
