Always There

God always responds to us when we call out Him. David spoke of this often in the Psalms.

Psalms 145:18 The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.

David not only told us this about God, he also practiced regularly calling out to God. Something in David caused him to know that God was real, and that God was there for him. David knew he needed God.

Psalms 147:1 Praise ye the Lord: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.
2 The Lord doth build up Jerusalem: he gathereth together the outcasts of Israel.
3 He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.
4 He telleth the number of the stars; he calleth them all by their names.
5 Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
6 The Lord lifteth up the meek: he casteth the wicked down to the ground.
7 Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:

If we will take the time like David did to get to know God, to talk with Him and to call on Him, we can get to that same place. According to David Jacob did this as well.

Psalms 147:19 He sheweth his word unto Jacob, his statutes and his judgments unto Israel.
20 He hath not dealt so with any nation: and as for his judgments, they have not known them. Praise ye the Lord.

Let’s take time to be with our God today, and everyday. He is our El Shaddai, the one that will always provide for us.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You alone are worthy to be praised Your kingdom is filled with Your glory, and we ask for Your kingdom to come to the earth today Lord. Send us Your overwhelming provision. Help us to release any negativity we have toward others, and forgive us our iniquities. Heal our hearts and minds, and deliver us from the evils of this world. In Yeshua’s (Jesus’) name.
