The LORD Fulfills Our Desire

Yes.

“¹⁸The Lord is near to all who call on him,

to all who call on him in truth.

¹⁹He fulfills the desire of those who fear him;

he also hears their cry and saves them.”

— Psalm 145:18-19 (ESV)

The LORD is here for and gives to those who love and are devoted to Him. He hears our cry and desires and answers the call. Can any of us say that about those in the world. Think about it. You cry out, is there a person in this world that will always come running. You have a desire, is there a person in this world that will fulfill it. The LORD does, every time.

There are times that I cry out and, nothing. I really want something and, it does not come. Before we get into specifics about how you feel as though you are left hanging, even in the LORD, remember that everything is in His timing and plan. We are simply here to work the plan the LORD has for us and remain steadfast as we wait on Him. When I cry out or really want something, in either case, it is likely that it is not in His plan. Or, He will provide the resolution, just not right now, when I feel as though I should have it.

The LORD is there for me and will ensure that I am provided for. Look at the above and first part of the below verses and see the love that is in Him toward us, His children. Know that the LORD is always with us. He fulfills all that we need when we call out to Him from our hearts.

“²⁰The Lord preserves all who love him,

but all the wicked he will destroy.”

— Psalm 145:20 (ESV)

And then there is the second part to the above verse. He will destroy all who are against Him. He hears and fulfills the desires of His heirs and all those who are not, they will be dealt with in due time.

The LORD is our provider. He will give to us all that we need in the time we need it. Even our desires. When we are in the LORD, our desires will be centered on Him and His glory. We will cry out to Him and He will hear us. He will save us and deliver our desire when we are fully devoted to Him.

Where is the LORD in your life? Are you calling to Him in hopes that He might deliver you? What if you called out knowing He would deliver you and your desire thanks to the devotion you have in Him?
