Psalm 6: 9: "The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer." In Hebrews 5:7 we are told concerning the Lord Jesus, “Who in the days of his flesh, when he had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able to save him from death, and was heard in that he feared.” That is our confidence today. God will hear and answer our prayer when we are in deep trouble. Isn’t that a comfort to you, my reader? You may be in a very difficult and frightening place right at the moment. If you are, this psalm is for you. I would call verses like this one. "shouting ground." The old timers had no reluctance to shout "Amen" or "preach it, brother." I remember one minister who would during a revival service when the evangelist had made a piercing point, he would yell, "Think about it!" We need to not be ashamed to express our joy in the Lord. Moreover, when we are in danger or perilous times, we need to remember this verse and "Think about it!"
