There is an amazing two-fold promise in this verse: I will answer you; I will show you great and mighty things that you don't know. Do you want the Lord to give you answers? Do you want Him to show you great things? Do you want Him to give you revelation into things that you need understanding about? He tells you how to get it-- call unto Me.
The problem with us is that we want the promise without the condition. We want what God has for us but we don't want to do what it takes to get it. We want the benefits but we don't want to pay the price. In the case of this verse, we want these promises but we are more willing to do everything else than we are to simply "call on Him".
We are willing to run here and there. We are willing to seek out someone who will help us. We will go to great lengths to try to find our own solution. We will pay high prices to get some sort of understanding or aid. But we won't, or don't, call on the Lord. Why?
Why won't we just "break down" and call upon Him and ask Him for what we need? We each have our own reasons. Some may feel unworthy. Some may feel condemnation and guilt. Some may have too much pride to call upon Him-- they think they can do it themselves. Some don't believe He really loves and cares about them. Others just aren't willing to take the time. And the lists of reasons goes on.
If you are in need and you are wanting some answers and you are wanting God to show you some great and mighty things, then call on Him. Yes, it is as simple as that. Stop making it hard and complicated. He knows how we are so He made it easy for us-- just simply "call on Me".
Have a great day. If you will call on Him, He will answer you.
