Where can we find help in times of trouble?
There is hope in God
Psalm 33:18 - 22
18 Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon those who fear Him [and worship Him with awe-inspired reverence and obedience],
On those who hope [confidently] in His compassion and lovingkindness,
19 To rescue their lives from death
And keep them alive in famine.
20 We wait [expectantly] for the Lord;
He is our help and our shield.
21 For in Him our heart rejoices,
Because we trust [lean on, rely on, and are confident] in His holy name.
22 Let Your [steadfast] lovingkindness, O Lord, be upon us,
In proportion as we have [a]hoped in You
God will help us!
How many times have our backs been against the wall and God came through for us right on time.
We are assured that God will come through for us all, the thing that we may sometimes wonder about is his timing.
Maybe though those things that seem insurmountable - if we keep our eyes focused on God and what he said to us through his word, then we would not give way to those disturbing thoughts that come directly from the kingdom of darkness, as we wait on God's perfect timing. If we stay in worship the wait will not seem so long.
Think on this.....if going on a long journey
If focusing on the length of the journey we will be absolutely miserable rather than just accepting the journey and enjoying WHILE we are intransit.
He will grant us the desires of our hearts
AS WE DELIGHT OURSELVES IN HIM.
In the process of waiting may we delight ourselves in God
We have made up minds, we will not be moved, we will be still, we will wait until we see God's salvation and the fruition of his promises in our life
AND while we wait we will worship as we put all our hope and trust in God
Amen
Walk Good in Christ
Till we meet again
