Psalm 102: 17-18 ” He will respond to the prayer of the destitute; He will not despise their plea. Let this be written for a future generation, that a people not yet created may praise the Lord.”

Psalm 102 is titled – A prayer of an afflicted man…When he is faint and pours out his lament before the Lord. The writer of this Psalm wants the generations to come after him to know that God not only hears our prayers, but answers. The Lord has heard my cry for mercy, He has not sneered at me and turned away. Hence, I will declare His righteousness to a people yet unborn, that they in turn may rejoice and trust that the Lord will always hear their prayers. A people not yet created…that’s you and me!
