"The LORD is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth." (Psalm 145:18)

In a major address, before the assembly at Connecticut, Ezra Stiles praised the Lord for his help to the colonists. He said, "To Whom but the Ruler of the Winds shall we ascribe it that the British reinforcements, in the summer of 1777, were delayed on the ocean three months by contrary winds, until it was too late for General Clinton to help at Saratoga: a turning point of the war."

One of God's hard questions to Job was, "By what way is light diffused, or the east wind scattered over the earth?" (Job 38:24) God, by His many questions to Job, was showing that it was He, Himself, who has made and has control over all the world. God, who is indeed "the Ruler of the Winds" can aid us when we call upon Him in truth.
