In the Midst of Trouble?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who know you walk with them in the midst of trouble. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Ever need an antidote for trouble. Look to the psalms.
Psalm 23:4 (ESV) says,
“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.”
Psalm 138:4-8 (ESV) includes a phrase that parallels Psalm 23:4,
“Though I walk in the midst of trouble.”
“All the kings of the earth shall give you thanks, O Lord,
for they have heard the words of your mouth,
and they shall sing of the ways of the Lord,
for great is the glory of the Lord.
For though the Lord is high, he regards the lowly,
but the haughty he knows from afar.
Though I walk in the midst of trouble,
you preserve my life;
you stretch out your hand against the wrath of my enemies,
and your right hand delivers me.
The Lord will fulfill his purpose for me;
your steadfast love, O Lord, endures forever.
Do not forsake the work of your hands.”
Fear not! Got will walk with you through the darkest times. Pray. He will draw near.
