The Bad Times Out of Our Control

In the day of trouble do you take refuge in, and trust God for deliverance, or do you just wait without doing anything until it passes. Next time trouble hits home, there’s a strength and stronghold to help if we ask the Lord for it. Most people, Christians included, don’t involve the Lord in their everyday affairs. God said; “Acknowledge Him in all your ways and He will direct your path” (Proverbs 3:6). The word also tells us, the footsteps of a good man are ordered by the Lord (Psalm 37:23 KJV). So our participation in living the word of God is vitally important in obtaining the help of God. Today’s verse starts out by saying; The Lord is good,… We must always strive towards being like our heavenly Father who is good. All things work together for the good of those who love God (Romans 8:28). Finding a way to deal with crisis, calamities, hurtful relationships, sickness in your body or mind, lack of finances, and simply just being happy in life is all connected to our faith in God. The more faith, the less unnecessary trouble. The more prayer you participate in, the less unwarranted attacks will come from your enemies. Prayer clears the way in avoiding future mishaps that are out of your control.
