"I sought the Lord and He heard me and delivered me from all my fears." - Psalm 34v4
One can pause to think, David, the same man that killed the Lion and the Beer while he was a teen, not only that, Goliath, the so-called great warrior with six toes and fingers; still has fears? Then it would be a arguable if we say we do not have fears as children of God - Yes, we do. Even rulers of this world have fears. With the world food shortage, depletion of natural resources, soaring price of oil and global warming - no one is sure of whats gonna happen next. Hence, we all have fears.
But take a look at that verse very well. David was not denying that he doesnt have fears, in fact he acknowledged he has but he said "I sought the Lord..." Many of us today are not seeking the Lord in our fears. We are basically seeking the bank for loans, uncles & aunties for help. The bible said that "Give us help from trouble: FOR VAIN IS THE HELP OF MAN" - Ps 60v11/Ps 108v12. But the scripture also has it like this; "And Asa cried unto the LORD his God, and said, LORD, it is nothing with thee to help, whether with many, or with them that have no power (or with few): help us, O LORD our God; for we rest on thee..." - 2 Chron 14v11.
I dont care how ginormous your problems are today. I dont care how magnanimous they seem to be. How dont want to bother how great a mountian you are facing. My bible tells me that; IT IS NOTHING WITH GOD TO HELP! Oh! I feel like jumping off my seat and hitting the ceiling. IT IS NOTHING WITH GOD TO HELP! whether in debt, in sickness, in you academics (in that most difficult subject), in that toughest job you've got, in your marriage, in your career pursuit, in whatever it is tht you lay your hands upon to do... As you go this week, carry this with you... Seek the Lord in all things, He sure will hear you and deliver you. SAY AMEN! HALLELUYAH!
