The Treasury of David
by Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892)
4. I cried unot the Lordwith my voice. Why does he say with my voice?
Surely, silent prayers are heard? Yes, but good men often find that, even in
secret, they pray better aloud than they do when they utter no vocal sound.
Perhaps, moreover, David would think thus: “My cruel enemies clamor against me; they lift up their voices,
and behold, I lift up mine, and my cry out-soars them all. They clamor,
but the cry of my voice in great distress pierces the very skies, and is louder
and stronger than all their tumult; for there is one in the sanctuary who hears
me from the seventh heaven, and he has heard me Out of his holy hill.” Answers to prayers are sweet cordials for the soul. We need not fear a
frowning world while we rejoice in a prayer-hearing God.
