God Sees & Hears

  The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, And His ears are open to their cry - Psalm 34:15.

God sees 

              God sees Hagar in the desert and promised her that He will increase her descendants and they will be too numerous to count. The angel of the Lord found Hagar near a spring in the desert; it was the spring that is beside the road to Shur. And he said, “Hagar, servant of Sarai, where have you come from, and where are you going?” “I’m running away from my mistress Sarai,” she answered. Then the angel of the Lord told her, “Go back to your mistress and submit to her.” The angel added, “I will so increase your descendants that they will be too numerous to count” - Genesis 16:7-10.

God hears 

            God heard the crying of boy when Hagar was in the wilderness with no water. God heard the boy crying, and the angel of God called to Hagar from heaven and said to her, “What is the matter, Hagar? Do not be afraid; God has heard the boy crying as he lies there. Lift the boy up and take him by the hand, for I will make him into a great nation.” Then God opened her eyes and she saw a well of water. So she went and filled the skin with water and gave the boy a drink - Genesis 21:17-19.

God sees us & hears us

               Our God sees all our pain and hears our cry. Then she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her, You-Are-the-God-Who-Sees - Genesis 16:13. I love the Lord, because He has heard My voice and my supplications - Psalm 116:1. The LORD has heard my cry for mercy - Psalm 6:9. But truly God has listened; he has attended to the voice of my prayer -  Psalm 66:19. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit - Psalm 34:18.

                                                                      


PRAYER: Dear Lord, We love You and thank You as You are the Lord who sees us and hears us.  In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
