GOD'S HELP-2

Text: Psalms 33:20

Our soul wait for the LORD: he is our help and our shield.

Relaxing yourself in God's hands to receive His help in the face of trouble is key to your deliverance.

In our Bible reading, the two women in Samaria sought help for themselves and they got into big mess. They became cannibals simply because they couldn't wait on the Lord. 

Today, we shall be paying a closer attention to the statement made by the King of Israel to the woman seeking justice. 
The king said "If the LORD does not help you, where can I find help for you? From the threshing floor or from the winepress?"

The king of Israel made it clear that the only one who can help is God. If you know this singular truth, you will stop seeing men as your help, and start looking up unto God alone as your help and source.

You must know and be well established in the fact that, except the Lord helps you, no man can. The Psalmist says 
'I will lift up my eyes to the hills— From whence comes my help?My help comes from the LORD, Who made heaven and earth" (Psalms 121:1&2).

Your help does not come from any high connection, association or relationship, all of these the  Palmist  refers to as hills.

 *Your help does not come from the hills, but from the Lord only.* 

God will use men, but men are not the source of your help, only God is.
If God does not help you, no one can.

Bible Reading
 
2 King's 6:24-33.

PRAYER FOCUS

Father God, help me to always wait on you for help in Jesus name.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...
