How do we know that God hears us in our distress?

Answered in 1 source

God's Word assures us that He hears the cries of those in distress, as evident in Hagar's story where God responded to her plea.

In Genesis 21, when Hagar and her son Ishmael were cast out into the wilderness, God heard their cries and graciously intervened. He opened Hagar's eyes to a well of water, providing for their needs. This narrative serves as a powerful reminder of God's attentiveness to the cries of His people, reinforcing that God hears those who are broken and in need. In Psalm 107, multiple illustrations emphasize that God delivers those who cry out to Him in their troubles, showing that He is compassionate and responsive.
