God is your shield, glory and the lifter up of your head. Stop walking with your head bowed. The vision is still accomplishable.
Yes you may have suffered major losses but you can still rise again. The righteous falleth seven times and seven times they rise again. Don’t give up on yourself when God has not given up on you. The challenges of life are real but more real are the plan that God has for you.
Know for a surety that you are not a failure and that where you are now is not your end. There is still a better future ahead for you. Stop those suicide thoughts. Forget about the divorce. There is help for you in God. Know that with God there is no dead end.
What you call an end may just be what the Lord calls the beginning. There is always a way out of every situation when God is involved. He has never failed and will never fail. He is not a man that He should lie, neither the son of man that He should repent. Has He said and shall He not do it, has He spoken and shall He not make it good. God is ever dependable and too faithful to fail.
God’s help is available to all that desires it. Remember that God is not a respecter of persons. If you draw nigh to Him He will draw nigh to you and make you exceedingly fruitful. God is so eager to help you than you can imagine. Your messed up past or life is not a barrier.
In John 11, Mary and Martha’s brother called Lazarus was sick and they sent for Jesus to come and heal him. When Jesus got into the town, Lazarus was already dead and buried. D biblical record says he was already stinking but that did not stop Jesus. What mattered was that they called for help.
Know for a surety that there is nothing too hard for God to do. What is impossible with man is possible with God. For with God nothing shall be impossible.
The situation confronting you may be so bad that it stinks and you cannot discuss it with anyone, hear me, God already knows about it. Jesus did not come for the good situation rather He came to wipe away the stink in your life.
You may be ashamed of it but He takes pleasure in it. If you can cry out to Him to help you, He will arise for your help and make your life beautiful. Don’t hesitate.
Don’t allow what people will say to stop you. The truth is that people will always talk but you can shut their mouth with the awesome help that you can receive from God.
Jesus helped Mary and Martha by raising up Lazarus from the grave thereby shutting up the mouth of their mockers. This same Jesus will do likewise for you if you will ask Him. Cry to Him right now because He is waiting to show you great and mighty things that you do not know exists.
The love of God for your life is so great it is beyond understanding. No wonder the scripture says what manner of love is this that a man should lay down His life for someone as useless as me. Lord, am forever thankful.
The scripture went on to say, if God did not hold back His only begotten Son, what is it then that He will not freely give to you. Beloved, take advantage of it quickly. He has giving you a blank cheque. Use it now.
I challenge you in Jesus name, to lift up your eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh your help. Your help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: He that keepeth thee will not slumber. Behold, He that keepeth Isreal shall neither slumber nor sleep. The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: He shall preserve thy soul. The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore (Ps 121).
Have you given your life to Jesus? If not, please pray this prayer. Father, I come to you as I am. I invite Jesus into my life to be my personal Lord and Saviour. Wash me cleanse with the blood of Jesus and empower me with the power of your Holy Spirit. Thank you Father for saving my soul and making me your child.
