The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.
Psalm 6:9 belongs to the first book of the Psalms, Psalms 1 to 41. It is part of David's complaint in his sickness, in which he prays for God to hear him. The verse expresses triumph and confidence in God after a sense of great need, declaring that the Lord has heard weeping, plea, and supplication and will receive prayer.
This assurance means sorrows will soon end. Remembrance of this former answer to David's prayer gives a basis for pleading with God in prayer. The verse reveals a God who is able and willing and anxious to save, who hears and welcomes prayer.
It helps the soul in discouragement, strengthens in time of trial, and gives solid comfort in times of grief. It calms the troubled soul and brings peace to a wounded conscience, which makes Psalm 6 precious.
