250     The Glad Tidings of the Messiah (pbuh)





                      unfailing love, for I have put my trust in You. Show me the way I
                      should go, for to You I lift up my soul. Rescue me from my enemies,
                      O Lord, for I hide myself in You. Teach me to do Your will, for You
                      are my God… Lead me on level ground. … Preserve my life; in
                      Your righteousness, bring me out of trouble. In Your unfailing
                      love, silence my enemies... (Psalm 143:6-12)


                           ALLAH RESPONDS TO PRAYERS

                      If My servants ask you about Me, I am near. I answer the
                      call of the caller when he calls on Me. They should there-
                      fore respond to Me and believe in Me so that hopefully
                      they will be rightly guided. (Surat al-Baqara, 186)
                      He Who responds to the oppressed when they call on Him
                      and removes their distress, and has appointed you as in-
                      heritors of the land. Is there another god besides Allah?
                      How little you pay heed! (Surat an-Naml, 62)


                      Gospel

                      Ask and it will be given to you, seek and you will find, knock and
                      the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, he
                      who seeks finds, and the door will be opened to him who knocks.
                      (Matthew 7:7-8)
                      Therefore I tell you: "Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that
                      you have received it, and it will be yours." (Mark 11:24)


                      Torah

                      In your distress you called and I rescued you. I answered you out of
                      a thundercloud. (Psalm 81:7)
