There was a popular Mexican soap opera on the Nigerian television scene a few years ago titled “The Rich Also Cry”.
The title of this drama gives credence to the fact that every human being, no matter how intelligent, wealthy, powerful or highly placed, would at one time or the other in life require assistance to deal with circumstances beyond human capability and control.

The situation that renders a person of great means incapacitated is usually the type that money, authority and influence cannot resolve.
At such times, a call for supernatural assistance or divine intervention through desperate prayers to the Almighty God is the only option left.
I pray that as you call on the Name of the Lord in the day of trouble, He will answer you by fire Jesus’ Name.
However, if you want your prayers to be answered, you have a responsibility to ensure that you are not in the habit of blocking your ears to the petitions of the poor and needy ones around you.
Our memory verse says that a person who heartlessly disregards the needs of the feeble weak and helpless is wicked.
The prayers of such a person will be disregarded in the day of trouble, no matter how desperate their cry for help may be It is common knowledge that many African nations and some developing countries around the world have suffered and are still suffering under corrupt, selfish and tyrannical leaders.
Open Heaven For Today
Officials are known to be crooked, and a bribe is required before any service is rendered.
Salary and wages are not paid when due, and they are sometimes delayed for months on end by government and corporate employers.
We have also seen some Christian ministers and clerics showing more interest in monetary gain than in serving God and the people.
It is time for everyone involved in such evil acts to note that eternal damnation awaits them if they fail to repent.
One of the terrible realities of our time is the fact that even the Church is falling short in fulfilling her responsibilities to the poor and needy.
The Church must not leave the less-privileged persons in our communities at the mercy of politicians and government officials, irrespective of their promises and political agenda for the poor.
This is because God has neither suspended nor revoked our mandate to care for the poor.
The Body of Christ must wake up to the responsibilities of a loving and caring Church, if we want our collective prayers to be answered by God.

I live my life in total dependence on the Almighty God as the Source of my life and all that I do, I am nothing without Him.
l therefore cannot even bear to imagine what my life would be like if God ceased to hear me when I call Him.
I decree in the Name that is above all other names that heaven will never ignore your cry for help in Jesus Name.
