Psalm 86:6a "Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer..."
Day 275 – Psalm 86
“Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer…” Psalm 86:6a
IT IS SO EASY TO TAKE GOD FOR GRANTED
Many of us are probably guilty of taking God for granted. There is a twin-danger. We abuse the knowledge of the goodness of God. Since God is ready to forgive and He is abundant in mercy, we tend to be careless about the way we relate to Him in prayer.
EXERCISING APPROPRIATE REGARD
David was most careful in the way he approached God in prayer. He did not dare to take God and His abundant mercy for granted. This is seen in the way he offered his prayers to the Lord.
“Give ear, O LORD, to my prayer;
And attend to the voice of my supplications.”
Psalm 86:6
