TOPIC: Look Unto The Lord For Help (TREM Devotional 25 July 2022)
“Delirious, I chattered like a swallow or a crane, and then I moaned like a mourning dove. My eyes grew tired of looking to heaven for help. I am in trouble, Lord. Help me!” Isaiah 38:14 (NLT)
Wisdom For The Day MESSAGE:
Beloved, the secret place is a place where you are supposed to come to the end of yourself and look unto God. When you look unto Him, your face will be enlightened, and you will not be ashamed. When Hezekiah came to the end of himself, he asked God for help. Before then, all that Hezekiah was saying about himself was not what God was seeing. May I declare to you that for every negative thing you are seeing about yourself, God is not seeing it? You are important in the assignment of God. That is why you will still be very much around. God has you covered; past, present, and future. You still have a say so in this world. You are still going to make a formidable impact on the kingdom of God in your world. You are full of potentials. The investments, treasures, and talents that God put inside you are still potent. God cannot bring you this far to abandon you. He is your Helper!
“But what could I say? For he himself sent this sickness. Now I will walk humbly throughout my years because of this anguish I have felt. Lord, your discipline is good, for it leads to life and health. You restore my health and allow me to live!” (Isaiah 38:15-16 NLT). Here, Hezekiah’s confession has changed. What I am going through is going to lead me to life and health. It is just a walk-through. My business will be better. I now have a clearer picture of what God wants me to do and how to succeed. I now have a clearer vision of the direction my business should go and how I should pursue my destiny.
Beloved, stop looking at your circumstance and start looking unto Jesus. You are not going to die! Your health has been restored. You have been allowed to live. Focus on what Jesus has already done.
