Disheartening times…but hold fast to Jesus
The price of gas went up, it came down, the US dollar was falling, now its sky rocketing, and more recently interest rates have increased. The globe seems to be suffering alot of financial woes also, and now with our already uncontrollable crime, we now have financial worries of our own. Job market crisis threatens and our Sugar Factories are not selling as easily as we thought they would, what else could go wrong-though hard to believe- WAY TOO MANY THINGS, but in all things we as the body of Christ need to hold fast to His word that kept us when things were going afloat.
In Psalm 121, the writer looks to the hills and wonders…‘Where does my help come from?‘. Many of us may be there even right now pondering over and over so many things. The answer then… numerous centuries ago still remains..MY HELP COMETH FROM THE LORD!!!.God has made everything, and in His omniscience, sees everything, so this is not even a mild shock to Him. While things were great we could have rolled of this Pslam of our tongues, but its time that we have deep water faith, in deep water.
Do not be disheartened oh brother and sister of the faith. Trust God, still……. He is above this and is still Jehovah Jireh.
Here’s a cool note that i learnt recently. The word PROVIDE is from 2 Latin words: PRO & VIDEO (hmm not sure i rember this right, but anyway) PRO means before and VIDEO means to see, so God is Provider is declaring He sees from before…. isnt that Scriptural too :)…..so worry not JESUS IS STILL LORD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
