The Lord Is Near To All Those Who Call Upon Him

 The Lord is near to all those who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth - Psalm 145:18.

                 God promises us that He will be near to all those who call upon Him. Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know - Jeremiah 33:3. Seek the Lord while He may be found, Call upon Him while He is near - Isaiah 55:6. The Lord is near to all who call upon Him in truth. He cannot come near to us, when we do not have truth in our hearts and words. Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God - Matthew 5:8. Let us call on God in truth.

               The Israelites called out to God in their slavery and God heard them. The Israelites groaned in their slavery and cried out, and their cry for help because of their slavery went up to God. God heard their groaning and he remembered his covenant with Abraham, with Isaac and with Jacob. So God looked on the Israelites and was concerned about them -Exodus 2:23-25. I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage - Exodus 20:2.

                  God will hear our cry when we call upon Him and fulfill all our desires. He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him; He also will hear their cry and save them - Psalm 145:19. For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved” - Romans 10:13. The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves such as have a contrite spirit - Psalm 34:18. Let us call on the Lord in truth to be near to us and see our desires fulfilled. Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me - Psalm 50:15.                                                      

PRAYER: Dear Lord, Let us call upon You in truth as You are near to all those who call upon You in truth. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
