It’s a wonderful day to be a child of God. Have you ever experienced sleepless nights where you walked the floor worrying about the uncertainties of tomorrow? No matter how much you tried to encourage yourself it seemed as if things were not getting better for you. No matter how hard you tried to get yourself together, the spirit of doubt had consumed your thoughts. Have you ever wondered how things would get better? Your current surroundings appeared bleak and cloudy. Nothing seemed clear. Your future appeared in jeopardy. Have you ever asked, “Why me?” You know God knows what is best for you but there were times when you felt overwhelmed by life and the troubles it brought (Job 14:1). Have you been there? Are you there now?
This morning, I have been commissioned to come and minister to you. My friend, I have been there. I have been in positions where I wondered how things could or would get better. There have been many nights where I shed tears. There have been times when I wondered does anyone understand me? I know you can relate. You wonder how much more must I take. You wonder why everyone around you continues to receive blessings, while you stand in anticipation. On the outside you are smiling, but within you are screaming (hollering) for refuge. You begin to wonder, Where Can I Find Help? Child of God, the help you need comes through Jesus Christ. The Bible declares in Psalms 121:1-2 – I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. 2 My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth. The help you desire, can and only comes from above.
My brother, my sister, what are you dealing with this morning? What have you been crying over? What have you been worried about? What situation do you spend all of your energy trying to fix? Who are you trying to change? Beloved, God is ready and willing to help you. He knows what you stand in need of. He knows what you need, when you need it. Yes, it gets difficult at times. Yes, there are days of stress and strain. Yes, there are times when you wonder, Where Can I Find Help? The Bible declares in Psalms 121:8 – The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore. Today, allow no job, no friend, no family member, no church member, no past mistakes, no financial setback, or no false story about you to destroy you relationship with the Lord. Your Helper is prepared to help you out. Prayer for Today: Father, help me with _____ ! In the name of Jesus … Amen!
