Benephraim, the Chasan Sofer interprets כל הסומך גאולה לתפילה של ערבית מובטח לו שהוא בן עולם הבא ואינו ניזוק כל אותו היום people are hurting him by questioning why isn’t Meshiach coming? He knows that at the time of galus the redemption is dependent on the proper tefila and that will calm him down and won’t feel harmed. The Rabbenu Yonah says a similar interpretation on והסר ממנו יגון ואנחה asking that we should not be depressed and saddened by thinking that Meshiach has not come yet.
