Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD. -Psalm 14:4

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. -Psalm 46:1

There are some of us who are as sure that God hears our prayers as we are sure that twice two make four. It is to us not a conjecture, no, nor even a belief, but a matter of fact. We are habitually in the custom of going to God and asking for what we want, and receiving it at His hands; and it is no use anybody telling us that prayer is useless. We find it constantly useful. It is of no avail for people to say these are happy coincidences. They are very strange coincidences when they occur again and again, and again, and God continually hears our prayers. The witness that the Christian has to the truth of his religion does not lie in the books of the learned. He is thankful for them, but his chief witness lies here-in his own heart, in his own inward experience. Now we always say that you must speak as you find. The Christian has found God faithful to him, has found His support in the time of trial, has found Him to answer his prayers in the hour of distress; and this is the counsel that he has taken for himself, and he, therefore, for these reasons relies upon God. Well, sneer as some may, I think we will do with our trust in God, my brethren, as the natives of a certain American State are said to have done when they, instead of making a law-book, agreed that the State should be governed by the laws of God, until they had time to make better-we will continue to put our trust in God until somebody shall show us something better; we will still pray, and get answered; we will still bear our troubles before God, and get rid of them; we will still rely upon Christ and find comfort until somebody shall bring us something better, and it won’t be just yet; and, until then, sneers and laughter shall not much affect us. ~ C.H. Spurgeon
