What's Your Problem?
Our Thoughts:
Ae you sick? Do you have marital or children problems? Are you about to lose your job? Someone hurt your feelings?
Is the 'church' not treating your right? I am sure we can find any number of problems, if we are asked. If I were to dwell on poblems, I am sure I could come up with a few as well.
You are going to find people that are more intent on telling you about their problems than they are to tell you about the happiness and successes in their problem. Their
nature is to complain and keep the 'fires burning' under those problems. One of those people was the man that laid by the pool of water for thirty eight years, waiting on 'someone' to put him in!
He never made an effort to reach the water himself, but 'waited' until the person of compassion came by. But, along came God and asked him WHY he was laying there so long. After he explained that nobody
would help him, Jesus told him to 'rise, take up thy bed, and walk'! [John 5:8] He didn't give him time to 'whine' about the problem of thirty eight years, but told him to 'do something'... get up! take thy bed!
and WALK!
Do you have a problem you want to get rid of? Is it affecting your ever day life? There's a God who has power over all the problems in our lives. He's the God of enough; He fed a multitude of people with
only five loaves and two fishes! [Matthew 14:17-21 He is the 'bread of life'. [John 6:35] He is the 'light of the world'. [John 8:12] He will fill you with all truth, if that's what you want. If you want to get power over
all those problems in your life, let Jesus help. He is the only one that can bring deliverance and peace. When you come to Him, and place your trust in Him, then those surmounting problems will become as a little mountain. And
the Word says, 'if you have faith as the grain of a mustard seed', [Matthew 17:20] you can remove this mountain! Place your faith in Him today, and let Him give you power over those problems!!
God's Thoughts:
Matthew 19:26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.
Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Our Cup:
Heavenly Father, we live in a world that brings us what seems to be unsurmountable problems. But, you can bring us through all those problems with your Power. Help us to trust in you completely. We give you praise! In Jesus name, I pray. Amen.
