"God is for me." He was "for us" when He gave His beloved Son, and because He is "for us," the voice of our prayer will always bring His help. "When I cry unto You, my enemies will turn back." This is not a vague hope but a well-grounded assurance—"this I know." I will direct my prayer to You and look
