Cry Out For God!

Cry Out For God!

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who cry out to you for help. In Jesus’s name, amen.

People can cry out the God for a million different reasons. It can be in desperation, in defeat, at a moment of loss, or in a crisis. Whatever the circumstances, God is aware.

Psalm 119:145-152 (ESV) begins with a whole hearted cry to the Lord.

“With my whole heart I cry; answer me, O Lord!
I will keep your statutes.
I call to you; save me,
that I may observe your testimonies.
I rise before dawn and cry for help;
I hope in your words.
My eyes are awake before the watches of the night,
that I may meditate on your promise.
Hear my voice according to your steadfast love;
O Lord, according to your justice give me life.
They draw near who persecute me with evil purpose;
they are far from your law.
But you are near, O Lord,
and all your commandments are true.
Long have I known from your testimonies
that you have founded them forever.”

Are you at a point where you are crying out to God? If not, consider approaching Holy God with reverence and honor. If yes, you are crying out, believe God led you to read this post.

Jesus Christ said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.” Will you trust his holy and inspired word? It is okay to cry out like the psalmist. Live expecting God to intervene in yours and other’s lives.

God’s Promises!

God’s Promises!

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know the generation of the upright will be blessed. In Jesus’ name, amen.

At the time it was written, Psalm 112:3-8 (ESV) tells us that he who followed God’s commandments was promised the following:

“His offspring will be mighty in the land;
the generation of the upright will be blessed.
Wealth and riches are in his house,
and his righteousness endures forever.
Light dawns in the darkness for the upright;
he is gracious, merciful, and righteous.
It is well with the man who deals generously and lends;
who conducts his affairs with justice.
For the righteous will never be moved;
he will be remembered forever.”

What a list of promises. It is well for a man who conducts his affairs with justice. Follow God. Are their things in your life that need to change? Ask God’s guidance for what he recommends for next steps. Step out in faith.

Extol, Bless, and Praise?

Extol, Bless, and Praise?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who extol, bless, and praise you. In Jesus’ name, amen.

David comes before God with a heart overflowing.

David sets the tone of Psalm 145:1-3 (ESV) when he says that the Lord’s greatness is unsearchable.

“I will extol you, my God and King,
and bless your name forever and ever.
Every day I will bless you
and praise your name forever and ever.
Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised,
and his greatness is unsearchable.”

How long does David say he will give God praise? The answer is “forever and ever.” David was confident of his relationship with the Lord, and his eternal destiny. Are you? To be sure, read and pray the prayer at the end of the Four Spiritual Laws.

Pharaoh Defeated?

Pharaoh Defeated?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know Almighty God defeated Pharaoh. In Jesus name, amen.

During the time of the exodus from Egypt, God did many miracles. God ultimately set the people of Israel free and defeated Pharaoh.

Exodus 15:19 (ESV) tells what happened to who was the most powerful man in Egypt.

“For when the horses of Pharaoh with his chariots and his horsemen went into the sea, the Lord brought back the waters of the sea upon them, but the people of Israel walked on dry ground in the midst of the sea.”

To commemorate God’s victory over Egypt, Psalm 136:10-16 (ESV) recounts the events and miracles.

The psalmist praises God, for his (God’s) steadfast love endures forever.

“To him who struck down the firstborn of Egypt,
for his steadfast love endures forever;
and brought Israel out from among them,
for his steadfast love endures forever;
with a strong hand and an outstretched arm,
for his steadfast love endures forever;
to him who divided the Red Sea in two,
for his steadfast love endures forever;
and made Israel pass through the midst of it,
for his steadfast love endures forever;
but overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red Sea,
for his steadfast love endures forever;
to him who led his people through the wilderness,
for his steadfast love endures forever.”

Pharaoh was swallowed up by the Red Sea, and then Moses led the people of Israel to the Promised Land. Ponder God’s deliverance. Praise him.
