Scriptural Encouragement & Exhortation

 

Comfort for the Afflicted

 

Since I am afflicted and needy, Let the Lord be mindful of me. You are my help and my deliverer; Do not delay, O my God…He does not forget the cry of the afflicted…"Because of the devastation of the afflicted, because of the groaning of the needy, Now I will arise," says the LORD; "I will set him in the safety for which he longs."…For He has not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; Nor has He hidden His face from him; But when he cried to Him for help, He heard…The afflicted will eat and be satisfied…I am afflicted and needy; Hasten to me, O God! You are my help and my deliverer; O LORD, do not delay…Vindicate the weak and fatherless; Do justice to the afflicted and destitute…O GOD, the Lord, deal kindly with me for Your name's sake; Because Your lovingkindness is good, deliver me; For I am afflicted and needy, And my heart is wounded within me…I am exceedingly afflicted; Revive me, O LORD, according to Your word…I know, O LORD, that Your judgments are righteous, And that in faithfulness You have afflicted me…Make us glad according to the days You have afflicted us, And the years we have seen evil…It is good for me that I was afflicted, That I may learn Your statutes…I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted And justice for the poor…my soul shall rejoice in the LORD; It shall exult in His salvation. All my bones will say, "LORD, who is like You, Who delivers the afflicted from him who is too strong for him, And the afflicted and the needy from him who robs him?"
