God Will Answer
He will fulfill the desire of them that fear him. He will also hear their cry and save them. (Psalm: 145:19)
His own spirit has wrought this desire in us, and therefore He will answer it. It is His own life within us which prompts the cry, and therefore He will hear it. Those who fear him are men under the holiest of influence, and, therefore their desire is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. Like Daniel they are men of desires and the Lord will cause them to realize their aspirations.
Heavenly desires are grace in the blade, and the heavenly husbandman will cultivate them till they come to the full corn in the ear.
God-Fearing men desire to be holy, to be useful, to be a blessing to others and so to honor their Lord. They desire supplies for their need, help other’s burdens, guidance in perplexities, guidance in distress, and sometimes this desire is so strong, and their case so pressing that they cry out in agony like little children in pain, and then the lord works most comprehensively and does all that is needful according to this Word — and will save them.
Yes, if we fear God we have nothing else to fear; If we cry out to the Lord our salvation is certain.
Let the reader lay this text on his tongue and keep it in his mouth all the day, and it will be to him as a wafer “made with honey.”
