Those who wait for the LORD’s help find renewed strength; they rise up as if they had eagles’ wings (Isaiah 40:31; NET).
Rise up, rise up
On eagles’ wings,
Rejoicing, as
Creation sings
In praise of God,
The much-loved Son,
And Holy Spirit:
Three in One.
Bow down, bow down
To God on High,
And weep for all,
Yes, groan, and sigh
With Yahweh’s Spirit,
Word for word,
Whilst knowing
Every plea is heard.
Since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for (1 John 5:15; NLT).

The Spirit, too, comes to help us in our weakness. For we don’t know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit expresses our plea with groanings too deep for words. And God, who knows everything in our hearts, knows perfectly well what the Spirit is saying, because her intercessions for God’s holy people are made according to the mind of God (Romans 8:26-7; TIB).
We are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him (1 John 5:14; NLT).
