"LORD, thou hast heard the desire of the humble: thou wilt prepare their heart, thou wilt cause thine ear to hear: Psalms 10:17"
We serve a living God and a wonderful God! The opening scripture says God hears only the desire of the humble. We should be quick to realize that the scripture did not say the prayer of the humble but the desire of the humble.
It means that before we pray, we should have a desire in our heart so that our prayer will be specific. Now, after the humble person has prayed his desire to God, God hears and prepares the heart of the humble person to receive the answer to the prayer.
Why must God prepare the heart of the humble person to receive? He prepares his heart to receive so that after he has received the answer, he will give God his glory. Secondly, God prepares his heart so that he can wait patiently for the answer. Finally, God prepares the heart of the humble person to receive so that the humble person can become a channel of blessing to others.
Dearly beloved, are you humble? Are you a channel of blessing to others?
