Whatever you’re facing today, this week, this year…crying out to God is the only way to deliverance.

Psalm 107:6 says “Then they cried out to the Lord in trouble; HE delivered them out of their distress.”

Breaking down this psalm, it’s clear what I do–and what HE does. I want what HE does!

I give thanks to God and praise Him,

I wonder and can’t find my way.

I hunger and thirst.

HE redeems me from the hand of the adversary.

I cry out to the Lord.

HE delivers me out of my distresses.

I give thanks.

HE satisfies me with what is good.

I dwelt in darkness–a prisoner to misery and chains.

I rebelled against God’s Word and spurned His counsel.

HE humbles my heart with hard times (I cannot do it without Him).

I stumble around trying to find answers and no one can help me.

I cry out to the Lord in my trouble.

HE saves me out of my distresses.

HE brings me out of my darkness.

HE breaks my bonds apart.

I give thanks for His lovingkindness and His wonders to me.

HE shatters the prison I’ve been in.

Amen! and Amen!

Let it be, God!
