The Honest Plea of the Poor and Needy
Psalm 70:5 · Hebrews 4:16 · Psalm 86:1

Christ in this chapter
Christ identifies with the poor and needy (Matthew 25:40). The God who hears the urgent cry is His Father.
Poor and needy. The honest self-description. The verse is for the urgent prayer of the empty.
Make no tarrying. Sometimes the prayer asks for speed. The chapter authorizes urgency.
