How do we know that God will hear our cries for mercy?

Answered in 1 source

God hears the cries of those who acknowledge their need for mercy and grace.

Psalm 130 emphasizes that God is attentive to the cries of His people. The assurance that our cries for mercy do not go unheard stems from our understanding of God's character as a loving and just Father. The text encourages us to approach God as mercy beggars, confident that He will not turn away those who genuinely seek His forgiveness. This is exemplified in the story of Blind Bartimaeus, whose persistent cries for mercy led to his healing. It confirms that when we acknowledge our sin and plead for mercy, God responds with grace, displayed in the example of Christ's compassion.
