He Will Hear And Answer Our Prayers

 We live in a world where truth is often twisted and justice frequently remains undone, and this is often reflected in the Book of Psalms. Many of David's writings bewail the injustices of life, where the innocent are hounded or persecuted, while the guilty appear to prosper and go unpunished.
 No matter what difficulties and dangers God's people are going through, we have an assurance that He Will Hear And Answer Our Prayers. When being falsely accused or when facing great danger, the Lord has promised to vindicate His people and rescue us from the ravages of those that hate us: "He will save us from the lion's mouth and the horns of the wild oxen," because we are His children and He is our God. When we are in Christ, we can declare with authority: "What can man do to us?" 
 Today, we live in an increasingly disturbing environment; a topsy-turvy world where right is called wrong, evil is considered good, and the people of God are calling out to the Lord with increasing concern and in deepening distress. We wonder how long the Lord can allow the evils of this world system and the disgusting acts of fallen mankind to continue. Many of His children grieve to witness the injustice that is taking place today, in the mighty corridors of world powers and in the secret shadows of dark places.
 God is still in control, and every day is one more day of grace when men and women are saved through faith in Christ Jesus our Lord. But a day is coming when He will return to put all wrongs right and judge the world in righteousness.
Psalm 35:17  How long, Lord, will you look on? Rescue me from their ravages, my precious life from these lions.

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, we praise and thank You that You are in control of this world and will one day be moved to bring in Your rule of righteousness and vindicate those that have been unjustly accused or abused. Thank You, Father, that You are the One Who places men and women in power and brings down rulers, in order to forward Your perfect plan of salvation for the redemption of the world. Thank You for men like David who have gone before us, but have set an example in trusting You to rescue their soul from the ravages of this world system. We pray that no matter what we face in the days ahead, we will trust You in all things and bring glory to Your holy name. AMEN.
