Psalm Chapter 102 KJV
King James Version, Holy Bible
1 Hear my prayer, O Lord, and let my cry come unto thee.
2 Hide not thy face from me in the day when I am in trouble; incline thine ear unto me: in the day when I call answer me speedily.
3 For my days are consumed like smoke, and my bones are burned as an hearth.
4 My heart is smitten, and withered like grass; so that I forget to eat my bread.
5 By reason of the voice of my groaning my bones cleave to my skin.
6 I am like a pelican of the wilderness: I am like an owl of the desert.
7 I watch, and am as a sparrow alone upon the house top.

8 Mine enemies reproach me all the day; and they that are mad against me are sworn against me.
9 For I have eaten ashes like bread, and mingled my drink with weeping.
10 Because of thine indignation and thy wrath: for thou hast lifted me up, and cast me down.
11 My days are like a shadow that declineth; and I am withered like grass.
12 But thou, O Lord, shall endure for ever; and thy remembrance unto all generations.
13 Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come.
14 For thy servants take pleasure in her stones, and favour the dust thereof.
15 So the heathen shall fear the name of the Lord, and all the kings of the earth thy glory.
16 When the Lord shall build up Zion, he shall appear in his glory.
17 He will regard the prayer of the destitute, and not despise their prayer.
18 This shall be written for the generation to come: and the people which shall be created shall praise the Lord.

19 For he hath looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the Lord behold the earth;
20 To hear the groaning of the prisoner; to loose those that are appointed to death;
21 To declare the name of the Lord in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;
22 When the people are gathered together, and the kingdoms, to serve the Lord.
23 He weakened my strength in the way; he shortened my days.
24 I said, O my God, take me not away in the midst of my days: thy years are throughout all generations.

25 Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands.
26 They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed:
27 But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.
28 The children of thy servants shall continue, and their seed shall be established before thee.
PRAYER IN TIME OF DISTRESS
Thought for the day: He will answer you, do not give up.
Message:
In this scripture, it is clear to see that the Psalmist's condition was hopeless, and he had no idea when his prayer would be heard, or when the Lord would reply to his cries.
Have you ever been there?
After much prayer, he convinced himself in verse 12 that the Lord lives forever and that His remembrance will be passed down from generation to generation. In other words, he knew that God would not forget him.
It appeared that the solution would not come, but he knew that God would not forget him. See verse 13
13 Thou shalt arise, and have mercy upon Zion: for the time to favour her, yea, the set time, is come
There is a set time for you and when the set time comes, you cannot be stopped by the devil. God will always be there to fight for you.
Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. For behold, darkness shall cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the Lord will arise upon you, and his glory will be seen upon you. Isaiah 60:1-2
Keep looking unto Jesus, and keep crying to Him. He will come at the right time and lift you from the dungeon of life.
My Counsel
Ø Do not give up.
Ø Trust God in prayer until the best time comes.
Declaration
Father, I shall hold unto you until my change comes, for in You I put my trust, in Jesus' name.
