He will fulfil the desire of them that fear him: he also will hear their cry, and will save them.
He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him, He will hear their cry, and He will save them. Those He so answers are those who call upon Him in truth and sincerity, and who are faithful to do what He asks. Their hope and their success rest on His care rather than on human wisdom and self-sufficiency, and not merely on human willing or effort.
The infinite God gives the privilege of approaching Him as Father, dwelling in every home and staying near to hear every word spoken and every prayer offered. He shares in the sorrows and disappointments of every soul, and He observes how each person treats father, mother, sister, friend, and neighbor. He pleads with wrongdoers more earnestly than an earthly parent pleads with an erring child, and He pursues the unrepentant with tender invitation. He cares for human necessities with love and grace continually flowing to fulfill desire and satisfy need.
This promise does not allow people to dictate the time, place, or manner of His help, for apparent frustration and delay may serve their good and reveal His wisdom and power. This answering care belongs to His unsearchable greatness and His mighty and awesome acts, to His great goodness and righteousness, and to the glory and power of His everlasting kingdom whose dominion endures through all generations. It is to be praised from one generation to another and made known to all people, with all His works praising Him, His saints blessing Him, and all flesh blessing His holy name forever.
