Devotional
So then, beloved, the big question is “who is qualified for God’s help?” God’s help is available to all who seek Him with a sincere heart. The Bible provides several insights into who qualifies for God’s help. Number one is “Those who call on God.” “The Lord is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.” (Psalm 145:18). Number two, “The humble and contrite.” “…I dwell in the high and holy place, and also with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit, to revive the spirit of the lowly, and to revive the heart of the contrite.'” (Isaiah 57:15).
