God knows your tribulations.
“Now, therefore, behold, the cry of the children of Israel is come unto me: and I have also seen the oppression wherewith the Egyptians oppress them.” Exodus 3:9. (KJV).
Are you having a difficult time?
Does it appear God does not hear you?
Do you feel despondent?
When the Israelites served the Egyptians:
They also felt forsaken.
They felt God did not hear them.
They were wrong.
And so are you.
Remember, it was the cry of the Israelites that went to God.
Sometimes we must cry for God to hear.
Sometimes we must first learn a lesson before God can intervene.
However, on some occasions:
He intervenes speedily.
“And it shall come to pass that before they call, I will answer, and while they are yet speaking, I will hear.” Isaiah 65:24(KJV)
It does not matter how long it takes for God to listen to our plea.
What does matter is that He is always there.
He knows everything.
He has His reasons why it often takes long before He answers.
Trust Him and allow Him to do what is best.
He cares for you.
He will help.
Application to the Christian life:
Trust God.
When calling Him to help you, do it with trust in your heart.
Trust He knows everything.
He will help you.
No matter how long it takes.
