Meditate on: 2 Kings 6:27 NKJV
« And he said, “If the LORD does not help you, where can I find help for you? From the threshing floor or from the winepress?” »
Read: Psalm 121:1-3 CSB
1 I lift my eyes toward the mountains. Where will my help come from?
2 My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.
3 He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber.
Understand
I once told my children that, based on human experience, life is generally believed to be hard and full of sorrows.
A combination of factors may be responsible for this. First among these is found in 1 Peter 5:8 GNT:
« …Be alert, be on watch! Your enemy, the Devil, roams around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour ».
Furthermore, Genesis 3:17 ISV says
« …cursed is the ground because of you. You’ll eat from it through pain-filled labor for the rest of your life…»
The implication of these passages on unsaved people is so great that Job 14:1 NKJV had to say
« Man that is born of a woman is of few days and full of trouble.»
For the above reasons, every human being needs divine help and support.
In the name that is above all others, you will receive divine help to carry on in life.
Isaiah 41:10 ISV says:
« Don’t be afraid, because I’m with you; don’t be anxious, because I am your God. I keep on strengthening you; I’m truly helping you. I’m surely upholding you with my victorious right hand.”»
Yes, our God is ever ready to help in times of trouble, but many Christians seem to take this for granted until things begin to get out of hand.
Whenever you are struggling with sin or addicted to a bad habit, when you find yourself moving in cycles of poverty and sickness or delayed fulfillment of prophesies; it is time to seek divine help.
Remember that only God’s help gives permanent solutions to human problems.
Therefore, in line with Hebrews 4:16,
« Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.»
You must first obtain mercy.
Genuinely give your life to Christ, meditate on God’s word at all times (Joshua 1:8-9) and depend completely on the Holy Spirit to access divine help.
This is the secret of my success in life and ministry as the General Overseer of the RCCG. I cannot thank God enough for the tremendous help I always enjoy from Him.
I pray the Lord will send divine help to you today in the mighty name of Jesus.
Prayer point: Father, please let Your divine help be available to me always, in the Mighty Name of Jesus.
