When the righteous cry, the Lord hearth and delivereth them out of all their troubles (Psalms 34:17). God has spoiled us to a certain extent that he gives us favor when we don’t think we deserve. Why? Because He is faithful. He is love, longsuffering, gentle, kind… the list goes on. So many times we cry out to him in doubt and fearing that he doesn’t hear our cry. But the whole time he saying, “Just be quiet and listen.” “Lo, I am with you always”. Gods’ still small voice is such an awesome sound to hear but we can’t really seek and/or find him because we’re sooo loud and going wild when we can’t have our way or when were going through certain things. We even think we’ve got everything under control neglecting Gods role in our lives.
As we go through life day-to-day, daily we are tested. We’re talked about, misunderstood, lied on, lied to, falsely accused, stabbed in the back by “so-called friends, mentally and verbally abused, let down, bashed, we go through trials and tribulation. Yet, God always sees us through. When the righteous cry, He’s going to love us anyway and with that comes favor. We have to go through each process of life so that God can reveal himself to us. And the good thing about going through is that God won’t ever put more on us than we can bear. He will never put you in a situation that your faith will fail. Hebrews 11:6 says: “But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that he is and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek him”. We must also remember that all things work together for the good of those who love the Lord and are called according to his purpose (Romans 8:28); and that’s us, the believers of Christ.
Whatever you’re going through, whatever the situation, give it to Jesus! Things aren’t going to get better until you give that burden to The Father. There is nothing too big or too small for him. And nothing will be strange to him because he knows exactly what you need and exactly when you need it. He’s All Knowing. Even when we say to ourselves “I’m good, I can handle it, I got this, I got this!” God wants us to give him every situation and every problem so we won’t have to bear the pain of hurting ourselves and even others. The devil wants us to give up and cry but there’s nothing like asking for Gods guidance and His extra protection. He is the problem-solver and a wonderful counselor. He waits for us daily to come to him; when we’re attacked with distress and worry. For when the righteous cry, Yahweh hears and answers with deliverance and with his mighty power to set his free. We gotta be the opposite of what the devil wants us to be! He can’t see the end results but God can!
