It’s a wonderful day to be a child of God. So often in our lives we wonder, where is God? What is He doing? Why hasn’t He responded to me? Is He mad at me? We find ourselves surrounded by unfamiliar and uncomfortable circumstances. Everywhere you look there seems to be an attack arising. Whether it’s on your job, in your finances, in your marriage, with your children, in your ministry, your home, or even in your faith. Attacks on every hand. No matter what you do or where you go there appears to be more against you there for you. Have you been there? Are you there now?
This morning, I have been commissioned to come and strengthen you in the Lord. No matter what you find yourself [currently] in, God is much bigger and greater than it. My friend, God Foreknew! This means, before your problem, your storm, your dilemma, arose, God was already there. Before you realized there was something wrong, God was present. Before you cried out to Him, He responded with a way of escape. The Bible declares in Genesis 1:1, In the beginning God created … Whatever you are faced with today, God has already created a means of escape and/or protection. He has gone before you to straighten out every crooked road. Whether you realize it or not, God sees all and knows all. The Bible declares in Romans 8:29 – For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.
Foreknow = to have previous knowledge of: know beforehand especially by paranormal means or by revelation
My brother, my sister, God has not forgotten you. He hears each prayer you pray. He wipes every tear your release. What makes you think He has disappeared from you? The Bible declares in Hebrews 13:5 – Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. Beloved, God Foreknew! Relax, God is in control. Point to Remember: If He was God enough then, He is God enough now! Prayer for Today: Father, please give me the understanding to know you have everything under control. In the name of Jesus … Amen!
Scripture Reading for Today: Psalms 46:1
