Whew!!! What a Situation!!

Library

So many times, we get into situations and wonder where God is. We don’t feel like He has heard a word of our prayer and there are some of us who feel like he heard but refused to help us. It really is times like these that develop faith in us. I have noticed that it is easier to get people to read the Word of God than it is to get them to trust it. Please don't misunderstand me, it's a great place to start. Unfortunately though, reading the Word of God while refusing to try the word, will never develop faith in anyone. I know women and men who have read the Bible regularly while in jail and prison (for a lack of anything else to read) and they never developed any faith. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Therefore, we must all be granted a situation where we cannot see the evidence but our hope is in the fact that God said that He would do it!

I don’t know what your IT is today, but I know God. I know that if He allowed it to be in His word, you can trust it. I know that He is a healing, delivering, restoring, saving God! I didn’t just read that He was all these things but I went into a situation with Him where it was developed in me that He is all these things. I had a sickness situation, a bondage situation, a marriage situation, and many other bad situations. God came through! He proved that He was everything that His word said that He was. I found out that God was bigger than all of my situations!

If you are in a situation today, check and see what the word of God says about it. Ask God to help you renew your hope in Him. Remember, there is a difference between wishing and hoping. Wishing for God to move is just waiting. Hoping in God is waiting with an expectation! Be like King David in the Bible, he expected to see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. You may not believe me right now, but some day you will thank God for the situation. Without IT you would never know God beyond what you’ve READ Him to be instead of who you will KNOW Him to be. Those of us in the ministry probably testify more than we preach that He is certainly worth getting to know. HE IS GOD!
