Destruction everywhere. Where is God?
Psalm 46.
Does he not see the destruction that lay all around us? The wars, famine, the sick and those that wail in the streets of no hope?
(Psalm 46:6-10) “The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved;
He uttered His voice, the earth melted. The Lord of hosts is with us;
The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah. Come, behold the works of the Lord,
Who has made desolations in the earth. He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two;
He burns the chariot in the fire. Be still, and know that I am God.”
The nations raged and kingdoms were moved, and once the Almighty uttered his voice the earth melted. The Lord of hosts is with us.
He who has made desolations in the earth, He who makes wars cease to the end of the earth. The Lord is with us.
He who breaks the bow and cut the spear in two, He who burns the chariot in the fire. The Lord is with us. The God of Jacob is our refuge.
The Almighty hears every cry, every wail, and saves every tear drop. Nothing is hidden from the Lord. Our deliverer, comforter and mighty redeemer stays close to the righteous, preparing them for the day he delivers them from all of their troubles. (Psalm 34:17-20)
Those who walk through the fire come out as Gold. And after every storm a new plant has sprouted. Jesus suffered greatly for all mankind, then rose again after 3 days. So I tell you, so shall you rise. Satan may threaten to take all that you have but he can not take your faith. Your mind, your heart and your soul is the greatest threat. Because if your heart gets weak during battles then your flesh becomes willing. But if your heart is strong, your faith is stronger and the rainfall becomes food to the spirit.
I pray that you grow stronger during every battle. For the suffering shall be delivered, and we shall all rise again as Jesus did on the third day. (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17)
Pray, this prayer with me dear reader:
Lord I ask that you comfort us during times of trouble. That you may give us the strength to overcome every battle. Replace our doubt with faith, our weaknesses with strength, and our hopelessness with hope. Take our anxiety and turn it into bravery. Place a seed of yearning in our hearts for you Lord. So we may continually seek you. Comfort the unheard, the unseen, the unloved, and lead us to those that are unled. So that we may bring them closer to you Father. In Jesus name we make this prayer, Amen.
And whatever you may do dear reader, do it with love.
