David wrote Psalm 143. In verse 4 he expressed how he was overwhelmed. Then he increased his faith in verse 5.

It says, “I remember the days of old; I meditate on all Your works; I muse on the work of Your hands.”

We can do the same looking back through Scriptures. Over and over the Lord miraculously worked deliverances when the circumstances seemed impossible. 

As our faith is increased our heart is freshly awakened to desire to commune with the Lord. 

Verse 6 says, “I spread out my hands to You; my soul longs for You like a thirsty land.”

It reminds me of David’s words in Psalm 63:1. “O God, You are my God; early will I seek You; my soul thirsts for You; my flesh longs for You in a dry and thirsty land.”

The Lord uses our hard trials or spiritual dryness to create  hunger and thirst to draw us into intimate communion with Him.
