We all go through things in this life.Trials and things that are unbearable. But, we have the promise of God always being there for each one of us. We are not alone!!! He never said that things of this life was easy and would be like icing on a cake. But He did say that He would take us through storm if He didn't chose to deliver us at that point in time. No matter what we are going through He will never leave nor forsake us!!!
No matter what the storm is, cancer, finanical, physical or even spiritual. We are not to face the things of this life alone. We are also not to take the battles on by oursleves. We have to call on His name and believe and have the faith that He will take us through the stroms of this life. He is the storm calmer!!
In Matthew 8:23-27 kjv. The winds and the seas obeyed Him. In our day to day lives we have that promise of the Father!!!
Throughout the Bible there are incidents after incidents that happened to ordinary people. They PRAISED the Lord in the midst of their storms!!! For example look at Paul and Silas.
Paul and Silas Imprissoned
Acts 16:16kjv.
Talks about Paul and Silas preaching the gospel and there was a young girl that was possessed with a devil. She brought money to her masters for being a soothsayer. She had followed Paul and Silas around for a couple of days. Saying things like "You are men of God". Even the devil knows when your in right standing with God!!! Paul finally turned around being grieved in his spirit over this girl. When he turned he cast the devil out of the girl and she was made whole. Which in return made the masters of this girl very angry. Because Paul just took their money maker away. So they took Paul andSilas to the rulers in the market place.
Acts 16:19-26 kjv.
19. And when her masters saw that the hope of their gains was gone, they caught Paul and Silas, and drew them into the marketplace unto the rulers,
20. And they brought them to the magistrates, saying, these men, being jews, do exceedingly trouble our city.
21. And teach customs, which are not lawful for us to recieve, neither to observe, being Romans.
22. And the multitude rose up together against them: and the magistrates rent off their clothes, and commanded to beat them.
23. And when they had laid many stripes upon them, they cast them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely;
24. Who, having recieved such a charge, thrust them into the inner prison, and made their feet fast in the stocks.
They were in jail. By now our faith and our hopes would be lost it seems. Where cancer raises its head, where things in our lives try to make themselves bigger than what our God is. That is exactly what the devil wants for us to do. he wants to take our focus and our eyes off of God in these times and place them upon our circumstances. Our "jails". But, in this time we need more than ever to keep our minds and our focus on God and HIM alone!!!He is the only one that can deliver us from what we are facing in this life and make us whole once again.
Our faith is being streched and it is pulled to where it seems like it is going to break!!! But listen to what happens when we PRAISE GOD!!!!
VERSE 25-26.
25. And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisioners heard them.
26. and suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and everyone's bands were loosed.
PRAISE THE LORD!!!! If that don't make you want to PRIASE THE LORD I don't know what would!!! Not only did God do it for Paul and Silas but He still does it today!!!
Can you imagine: CANCER HEALED! FINANCES BLESSED-ABUNDANTLY RUNNING OVER! DEMON POSSESSED-DELIVERED! DEAD- RAISED BACK TO LIFE! DEAF- CAN HEAR! MUTE- CAN TALK!
No matter what we are facing or going through in this life He will see us through it! We have that promise! All we have to do is not only believe and have the faith BUT Praise Him for doing it before our deliverance even happens!!!
Praise the Lord in the midst of your storm, He will send help and HE will see you through!!!!!
