282 Psalms 141 – 144; Matthew 11
God please hear my prayer. God come quickly to my rescue. Lord I have pleaded for mercy. Hurry with your answer Lord I am at the end of my rope. Throughout these Psalms you hear David's cry to the Lord.
Psalms 143:1 (MSG) 1 A David psalm Listen to this prayer of mine, God; pay attention to what I'm asking. Answer me—you're famous for your answers! Do what's right for me. David kind of puts God on the spot by saying, "you're famous for your answers!"
What have you been asking God for in these recent months? Did you stop asking? Why? Prayer is listening to God, but it is also for asking. We need help because we are finite and tend to get tied up in our little world.
Ask God to help you believe in prayer. Ask God to help you to listen to Him and for you to keep coming to Him.
What do you need from God? Listen to these wonderful words from Christ Himself,
Matthew 11:28-30 (MSG)
28 "Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you'll recover your life. I'll show you how to take a real rest.
29 Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won't lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you.
30 Keep company with me and you'll learn to live freely and lightly."
