What does the Bible say about crying out to God in times of trouble?

Answered in 2 sources

The Bible encourages us to cry out to God in our troubles, reminding us that He is our source of comfort and help.

In Job 35:10, we see the question posed, 'Where is God my maker, who giveth songs in the night?' This implies that while we face countless oppressions and troubles, we should direct our cries to God rather than complain to others. The reality is that God's people often forget to seek Him first in their afflictions, leading to a heartfelt lamentation in the midst of pain. Elihu reminds us that God knows our struggles and is the only one who can truly address our needs. In moments of despair, acknowledging our reliance on God is crucial to experiencing His comfort and peace.
