HRN Jer 33.3d

Call Upon the Lord

Whether you are a Christian or not, you can be certain you will face problems in this ole world.  We can expect problems because we live in a fallen world.  But as Children of God, we have a great asset.  We can call upon the Lord to strengthen and help us face any problems we may encounter.

Since we do not know what the future holds, then the best way to prepare for what is just around the bend is to daily seek the heart of your Heavenly Father.  HIS answers come through different avenues…personal revelation, through Godly teaching, or through the advice of a grounded Christian friend.  But most often God reveals HIS Will to us when we read HIS Word.

Don’t make the mistake of deciding a course of action without first consulting the Lord.  Since He knows what is ahead, HE can prevent us from making bad choices.

“Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.”  (Jeremiah 33:3)

So, never let anyone persuade you into moving forward until you have heard from the heart of God.  Practice talking to the Lord in the good times and you become familiar with HIS still small voice.  Then when troubles come, you automatically call out to HIM and recognize HIS voice.

HIS Word says…“He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. (Psalm 91:15)

But don’t wait till trials hit, come to know the heart of your Father by spending time in HIS presence.  After all, HE is an all-knowing God who loves you and cares about everything that touches your life!
