When the Lord, God, thru the prophet Jeremiah, invited: “Call upon Me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not;” He was reaffirming His eternal covenant purpose to give us access to 'participate in the godhead; by asking and receiving.' [Jer 33:3; Pastor]
Asking is prayer, and prayer is asking; or responding to the invitation from the Lord, to “Ask of Me ...” Hence, the admonition to “pray without ceasing.”
[Pastor; Ps 2:8; 1 Thess 5:7]
Again, in Psalm 91, the most High God declares, concerning His Son (implied): “He shall call upon Me, and I will answer Him ...and shew Him my salvation”
[Ps 91:15-16]
David's response was: “Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and He shall hear my voice.” What a blessed assurance. [Ps 55:17]
ThenSingsMySoul:
I WILL CALL UPON THE LORD,
WHO IS WORTHY TO BE PRAISED:
SO SHALL I BE SAVED FROM MY ENEMIES;
I WILL CALL UPON THE LORD.
BECAUSE THE LORD LIVETH,
AND BLESSED BE MY ROCK,
LET THE GOD OF MY SALVATION BE EXALTED! (repeat)
[Ps 18:3, 46]
