Commentary from Pastor Michael White:
And in the time of their trouble, when they cried to You, You heard from heaven; and according to Your abundant mercies You gave them deliverers who saved them from the hand of their enemies. – Neh 9:27

God’s people were disobedient. They had experienced His goodness first-hand (v 25); yet still they rebelled (v 26)! God’s people were in trouble! Their enemies were overrunning them, and pushing them out of their homes.

So what did they do to stop the onslaught? They “cried to [God],” and He came to the rescue! They cried, and God heard; and He gave them deliverers to save them.

When you cry, God hears; and when God hears, He sends help. Are you going through something tougher than anything you’ve ever faced? Cry out to God! He will hear you, and He will send help.

Prayer:

Father, I know that when I cry to You, 1) You hear, and 2) You send help. Thank You for Your diving intervention, in Jesus’ name! Help me to never be too proud – or too busy – to stop and ask You for help.
